Described and reviewed by one on owner as one of the best Mini Component Hi Fi System Systems ever made

PANASONIC SA-PM20
ONLINE BUYER/OWNER REVIEW
I am glad to
say SC-PM20 is one of the best microsystems ever made by audio industry
world! To say frankly Panasonic/Technics brand was never too successful
in HI-FI, but has made some famous microsystems. The system has very
good desigh, the use of Bi-amping does its job perfectly! Even with
conservative 20 Watts output power system gives detailed, even balanced,
relaxing sound. The bass is not so deep (the size matters) but midbass
has defined notes without distortion. High/midrange is normal for micro
class, not irritating in any case . I never needed to use equalizer just
because everything was right. It is not for total drive or disco party,
instead it is amazing solution for places, where you need quiet, but
detailed presentation (office, bedroom, kitchen, store, small cafe ...).
By the way in its lineup it was the best unit, next models were somehow
worse. So i am keeping this thing with pride thanks to Panasonic! the sound quality from this is amazing. You really
need to go back and forth between systems and see which system has the
best sound quality.. mini and micro-systems included. The bigger ones
are more feature rich but to make up for that, it seems that the sound
quality suffers becuase the speakers were made more cheaply so the
prices could compete with other systems. This system is all about Sound
quality, design, and relative simplicity.
It's made from mostly metal
and wood, so i like its high quality construction which in my opinion,
helps sound quality even more. All I can really tell you is that if you
are thinking of buying a mini or micro-system, go to a few stores and
just compare what the SC-PM22 sounds like compared to anything else. Now
if you have $800+, then you can proabably get a big mini-ststem that
can compete and probably outdo this one.. perhaps..
If you want sheer
volume, a mini-system is just louder, but thats just noise, not music.
This system is absolutely optimal for someone who: enjoys listening to
excellent sounding music-the way it was supposed to sound, someone who
wants to put it in a small-medium sized room(Its in my bedroom).
