Description:

Panasonic's five-disc SC-AK58 mini home theater is a system well suited to home listening--and to making mixed tapes. Both cassette decks have auto reverse and a nine-track tape program sensor. The programmable CD changer offers separate drawer-open/disc-play keys for each of its five trays. And, the CD Manager lets you program a single track or select a range of songs from any number of discs.

For tone adjustments, the unit's 3-D space equalizer offers six preset moods: disco, hall, live, heavy, clear, and soft.

With a magnetically shielded three-speaker system and total system power of 260 watts in Dolby Pro Logic mode, you can also use the Panasonic SC-AK58 as a home theater. (Many VHS videocassettes and TV programs are encoded with four-channel Dolby Pro Logic surround; the monaural surround channel is routed in the SC-AK58 to both rear channels.)

The speakers feature ring-shaped, domed tweeters and a 6.75-inch woofer for shelf-shaking bass. Normal operation provides 100 watts per channel and less than 1 percent total harmonic distortion.

The SC-AK58's features include a programmable timer that can wake you up with your favorite song or play a selectable length of music as you fall asleep. The display screen provides system setting and playback information.

The unit comes with a wireless remote control and is Energy Star compliant, operating at 0.25 watts in standby mode.

A one-year warranty covers parts and labor.
