About the TEAC SR-100i
You've got music everywhere: on your iPod or iPhone, on thumb drives, and even on CDs. Enjoy it all — in style — with the TEAC SR-100i. This modern-looking speaker system can handle just about any format your music comes in. When we had a chance to hear this system first-hand in our large, acoustically challenging training room, we were completely knocked out by the musical clarity and surprisingly powerful bass.
A retractable dock holds your iPod, and automatically recharges your player. The top-loading CD player can play not just audio CDs, but MP3 and WMA discs as well. The system's USB port lets you plug in a thumb drive and play the music stored on it. Looking for more variety? The SR-100i also has a built-in FM tuner.
All this and great sound, too
The system features 2-way stereo speakers. 1-1/4" tweeters handle the high end, while 3-1/2" mid/woofers round out the midrange. In the back, bass-reflex ports enhance the lows to fill out the sound. You'll enjoy clean, detailed sound, nicely balanced from top to bottom.
From the review The TEAC SR-100i scores big on sound
"I really liked the TEAC SR-100i. Although it's an all-in-one system, there's no compromise on the quality of construction, nor the performance of the speakers. I enjoyed consistently great sound whether I was listening to the radio, MP3s, my iPod, or a CD. And that was true whether I was cranking Phideaux full blast, or enjoying a quiet moment with Bebel Gilberto."
