The MHC-EC55 is a mini hi-fi stereo system from Sony. Featuring a 3-CD changer, an AM/FM tuner with 30 presets, two 65W speakers, a 3.5mm auxiliary input, and 4 preset EQ settings, the MHC-EC55 can read home-burned MP3 CDs as well as the regular factory pressed CDs you buy at the store. Smaller and less obtrusive than larger models, the MHC-EC55 is designed for small to medium sized rooms. The only model without an iPod dock, the MHC-EC55 compensates by allowing multiple CDs for the consumer who does not subscribe to the latest digital media and who does not desire or find use for the power of larger more expensive units.

Pros
- affordable price for good sounding speakers
- good stereo separation with detachable speakers
- can read MP3 cds
- Has audio input, to connect an MP3 player or cassette player
Cons
- While few others offer it, a USB input for thumbdrives or a flashdrive slot to play MP3s would have been an excellent additional feature.
- Although the sound quality is good, it would still be better with a more solid speaker construction instead of just compressed sawdust.
