2-way speaker box gives you

high quality sound effects. The stereo not only includes a CD player, tape deck and AM / FM
tuner, but also an alarm clock (

) with sleep and snooze-control features. The supplied

30-key infrared remote control can operate the system from across the room. The tuner
features 20-station memory, allowing you to store up to 20 radio stations (10 FM and 10 AM)
in memory, so you can quickly turn to a stored station. The tuner also uses PLL (Phase Lock
Loop) Digital Automatic Seeking, which searches forward or backward to the next strong
station in the selected band so you can quickly find new stations. The CD player has
programmable play, so you can play up to 20 tracks in any sequence you choose.
