Sony MHC-EC98Pi


$200.00 Released October, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Remote can control iPod functions. Adds a dedicated subwoofer to the mix. Speakers aren't any larger than the less powerful MHC-EC78Pi.

The Cons:Besides being louder and separating the subwoofer from the main speakers this model does not add anything over the smaller MHC-EC78Pi. Only space for a single CD. The subwoofer does not have enough power for only a 4 ohm.

The MHC-EC98Pi is a mini hi-fi stereo system from Sony. Featuring a CD player, an AM/FM tuner with 30 presets, two 265W speakers, an iPod dock, 3.5mm auxiliary input, and 7 preset EQ settings, the MHC-EC98Pi can read home-burned MP3 CDs as well as the regular factory pressed CDs you buy at the store.

The MHC-EC98Pi's remote control can also control any docked iPod. Intended for those who listen to their music loudly on in larger spaces, the MCH-EC98Pi is stronger than the smaller models, seperating the subwoofer from the normal speaker enclosures to increase the amount of sound without distorting it. There are no other differences.
