for the Soundspace 5
11 years after my second review and... it's still there! It still LOOKS very good. The CD changer bit the dust about 5 years ago, but it still operates as a single CD player. Over the years it has done duty as the background music player for parties and dinners as it sits adjacent to the dining room in the living room. It's a real shame the system is an orphan. I have to say my prediction was true. The design still holds up after more than 15 years on the wall. The self-powered speakers still sound very good. I use it to stream audio now 99% of the time either from the iPhone or the Dell mini 10 server. It has become one of the better audio purchases I have made just because of the length of service.
Product Weakness: Not made for large rooms. Strains at high volumes. CD changer was a weak point. Proprietary Bose-like connections make adding anything annoying. Product Strengths: Design... still fresh after a decade and a half. Better than average sound at low volumes.
