I've been wanting to get a new system for a while, i recently i saw that Amazon put this stereo up, and to me being an amateur, it looks pretty nice.

What i'm wanting is a nice loud system, that still has clear enough of sound. Will be using it to fill a room up with sound and do dancing and such.

I don't want anything overly complicated, so this is why i look at these all in one systems, and not something complex with tons of parts.

It seems this stereo has been out for a while, but only now being sold in the US. Previously it was only sold in Europe, and the middle east, so its very hard to find any reviews, or videos of it that are in english. Which is why i'm posting about it here before i buy it, so see what you all think of it.

Have no idea what this guy is saying, but you can tell the size and see kinda how loud it can get.


The stereo costs $999, which is alot, but the speakers look nice, and they're huge. I don't really care too much about the DJ aspects.

I think this will be nice, due to its size, loudness, and so far people haves aid it has clear sound.
Also all i need is usb ports, so i can plug my computer into it. i don't use discs, or anything silly like that anymore.

One of my friends (who isnt into cool stuff or loud filling music) said i'd just be wasting money. I'll have a loud system but no quality.

thanks for your time.

While it looks cool, be aware that you can get a lot more for a lot less, and that Wattage doesn't = volume. A friend of mine has a 1980s amplifier by Pioneer, rated at just 20w per channel, and its loud enough at 20% volume to sound like a night club.

Also, that is NOT a 2000w sound system, its power consumption is 320w. This means that even if it has perfect efficiency the actual working power output will be at MOST 320w RMS, but depending on the Amp class (A, B, C, D or T) its more likely to be 50w RMS. This looks like a 2000w MPO rating, and MPO supposedly mean "max power" ratings are essentially made up on the spot. A 2000w Amplifier that is actually 2000w will take at least 2000w power consumption, and thats one reason they are extremely rare.
