I have a black Sony mini-componet stereo. It's sits on a
little table in my bedroom.

It's a newer model, and I've only had it for a almost a
year. It's kind of small, but very powerful. And bassy. Very
bassy.

I have 2 main stereos. The DVD surround sound set up with
middle speaker, 4 surround speakers and 1 subwoofer.

Then I have my stereo in my room, which is MASSIVE. It even
has 2 big pipe things on top of it blowing out air as the
beat drives on, with 4 subwoofer levels.... its the BASS>

i gots a SONY LBTG (or some shit like that) 5000 or 2000 or
what ever it's a mini system i guess it's about almost 8
years old. 3 band eq; low, mid and high. then a nice lil
knob for "surround" which kicks in a lil reverb on the mid
or sometimes high levels depending on the recording. only
10w x 2 tho. sound is clean but not like the best ya know.
and the levels when recording to tape are the fucking shit!

Cheap little 6o dollar speakers with a subwoofer, nothing
special, typical computer audio setup. One of the speakers
is getting fuzzy, being used so much because I have them on
ALL DAY at maximum volume, much to the chagrin of my
neighbourhood.

nice system bitch hog!
shame about the REL subwoofer, but I'll let you off it you
use it for AV

and REL make the best subwoofers

americans seem to love subwoofers, but in UK they are a BIG
no-no in hifi terms, but acceptable as part of AV
