The order and delivery process was easy, quick and seamless, all very satisfactory. The product itself, a Steepletone Houston XP 6-in-1 Music System, I find a bit underwhelming in its performance and handling. The sound from cassette and CD and external sources are acceptable for the price, also having all the available functions combined in one compact system is definitely an advantage. However, the turntable is slightly disappointing. It feels a bit flimsy and you have to put the arm down on the record manually, so it's almost inevitable to scratch the record. The sound is quite flat and tinny, and bass and treble adjustments don't make much of a difference. Another issue is the poor radio reception, the little antenna doesn't help much. Also, something I didn't expect is that you have to choose all the functions via one button, which you have to click multiple times to switch between functions. If you miss, which is easy to do because there are short delays while clicking through, you have to go through the whole list again. This is a nuisance and would have been so much easier with separate buttons for each function. Another slightly irritating characteristic of this system is the ever so slight background noise the speakers emit even when switched off, and which you can hear if it is otherwise completely quiet in the room. In addition, when you switch the system on or off, the speakers make a loud noise, which also is completely unnecessary. In summary, I'm not unhappy enough to return the music system, but next time would definitely spend a little more money for something with better quality.
