Sized to fit comfortably on a bookshelf or tabletop, the 

Harman Kardon®
 MAS 101 compact music system can
go almost anyplace. And with a slot-loaded CD player,
drift-free FM tuner, front and rear USB ports and no
fewer than eight auxiliary audio inputs (including phono
MM) – plus The Bridge IIIP dock for iPod and iPhone is
included – there are few audio sources it can’t handle.
The 2 x 65-watt amplifier and custom 130mm (5")
bass-reflex speakers with 25mm (1") MMD®
 dome tweeters will fill virtually any room with accurate,
distortion-free sound, and their classic good looks
will be at home anywhere.
