Looks like everybody wants to make some accessory or the other for IPOD/IPHONE these days. After Bose, Logitech and other manufacturers, it’s now Yamaha’s turn to bring something spectacular to the consumer electronics market. The latest mini systems from Yamaha aren’t necessarily the most attractive (they look a little bit “squished” for my liking) but they pack a fair punch specs wise.
First up, the MCS-1330 features 2 x 60W RMS power output, and features the amp, CD player, and speakers featuring 2.5cm tweeters and 13cm woofer. There’s even a USB port for adding other portable devices, plus analogue inputs for connecting up older equipment.
The MCR-330 and MCR-230 have a much lower output spec, at 2 x 20W, along with the CD player, USB and iPod ports. Speakers feature 2.5cm tweeters and 10cm woofers, with a different finish on each model.
Finally, the CRX-430 is the little brother of the MCS-1330, pushing out 2 x 25W of power but with other specs pretty much the same. The MCS-1330 retails for around €800 (£635), while the MCR-330 and MCR-230 are €250 (£200) and €230 (£180), with the CRX-430 coming in at €220 (£175).
