OUR FAVORITES
*************
JVC RV-B99BK Kaboom! Base Cannon Boombox
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JFML/billyee
When it comes to clean power and dynamic bass response, this
boombox knows no equal. JVC offers a feature-packed portable
system with dual 20-watt subwoofers and separate knobs for
volume and bass. The unit's single-disc CD and auto-reverse
cassette players sound great, and the boombox excels at both
loud and soft listening levels. Equally adept at rock and
classical, this product is a definite must-hear.

Harman Kardon FL8550 5-CD Changer
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JCU9/billyee
Topflight audio performance and solid construction put this
five-disc changer on the shortlist of stellar CD players
under $1,000--and this one is well below that price. The
unit offers 32-track, cross-disc programming and Random Play
alongside flashier extras such as play exchange, which
allows you to open the tray to switch four discs while the
fifth is playing. With HDCD-decoding capability and a
coaxial digital output, this is a perfect component for any
high-end system.

JBL HLS610 2-Way 6.5" Bookshelf Speakers
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JFJS/billyee
These little bookshelf models are perfect for focused
listening or home-theater applications, kicking out punchy
sound with solid bass and silky-clear highs. The speakers'
6.5-inch woofers are complemented by 10-millimeter tweeters
encased in JBL's Constant Directivity horns for extended
lateral high-frequency coverage. Use them as home-theater
mains with a subwoofer or put them in the back as
surrounds--either way, you'll be right in the middle of the
action.


TOP OF THE LINE
***************
Harman Kardon AVR65 Digital Surround Sound Receiver
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JCRO/billyee
When only the best will do, this receiver offers topnotch
surround processing, flexible inputs and outputs, and great
sound. Onboard Dolby Digital and DTS surround processing
make this an ideal conduit for home theater and multichannel
music listening, while six-channel analog inputs arm the amp
for routing additional surround formats. With high-grade
parts and plenty of power over all five main channels--75
watts per channel in stereo and 65 watts per channel in
surround mode--you'll enjoy music and movies in all their
dynamic glory.


EXCEPTIONAL VALUE
*****************
Jensen JF25 Stereo Headphones
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000J1FV/billyee
We were amazed at the comfort and quality of these
lightweight, low-cost headphones. You'll like the
convenience of the tangle-free, single-ear cord and you'll
love their clear treble and full bass response. They make
listening easy with a 1/4-inch adapter, a clipable volume
control, ear-fitting speaker cups, and a self-adjusting
headband.
