Okay... I did a search and can't find much info on the MDS-70 Home Audio System.
I would really like this for my office and would appreciate it if anyone has info on release dates (in the US, if possible), price, etc.
Thanks...

by coincidence I just came across this which seems that Sony are also branding this themselves as the mp001!
The front does say Sony where other pictures for the MDS-70 show Sony Ericsson.

I bought the MDS-70 a week ago in London. The sound from it is incredible. My partner wants to buy another one for another room. At present, it is in our bedroom. Don't hesitate to get it. Bought at £157.00. Volume goes up really high and the sub woofer is amazing - great bass and treble. You could probably even use this at a party. The clarity is amazing. For something so small you will be amazed at the sound. Even better than the Sony Hifi I bought a couple of years ago. Does anyone else agree with me?? |

Definitely a substitute for a micro or mini hi-fi. It charges your phone as it plays, any calls that come in and the music cuts off for you to answer the phone. But most definitely the sound is amazing. Has anyone else bought this? What do you think? |

sound really is great. very crisp and gets loud enough to bother the neighbors. unit is also very attractive, with polished metal sides, brushed steel casing and a very sturdy feel to it. it is also very compact and unobtrusive, less than a foot wide and less than 2 inches tall and deep. this is due to the 3" miniwoofer being housed in a box incorporated with the ac adaptor, which puts out great deep bass. the surround function works very well to widen the sound. it is many times better than the logitech mm50 speakers i have in terms of sound. but i guess the two units arent really intended for the same purpose. a couple of cons are the remote's lack of ffwd/rwd, play, and pause functions which forces you to operate those functions off the phone, which can be awkward as only the fastport holds the phone in place. with no other support, pressing those functions on the phone can easily disconnect the fastport. would be nice if portable, but i guess thats the drawback of having the woofer box. got for $210 USD on tessco.com. se better not ditch the fastport anytime soon... |
