Well again, (and this probably goes for other company's as well), that's a very subjective opinion. As I said before, you buy cheap stuf and that's what you get, cheap, shoddy, unreliable etc. Sharp make some fantastic equipment but you pay for it. Having said all that though (and I'll stick by my words which I've uttered on this list many many times), I reckon the best portable stereo I've seen in my time for quality and performance is the old faithful Panasonic RXED50, that takes one hell of a lot of beating. Now I won't deny that better portable machines have come and have gone but the RXed50 (considering the model is 7 years old) is still selling like hot cakes here and has features which other portables these days can only envy. No, it does not play MP3's on its CD player and quite frankly, such a feature is a secondary concern because you can easily plug an Ipod or whatever into the machine's aux port, what this thing really has going for it is its unbelievable sound, ease-of- use, great sounding CD player, excellent sounding and performing radio and last but not least, a great recording cassette deck which handles type I and type II cassettes for recording and type I, II and IV cassettes for playback. I think I may have mentioned that I sold my original unit some time ago thinking there would be something somewhat better out there, didn't turn out that way though so I bought another RXED50 not all that long ago.
