MAS 102TB/120

 There is nothing more sexy than a well-designed bookshelf stereo system and man is the MAS 102 a looker. It’s much of what you’d expect in such a device with a slot-loading CD player, FM tuner, two USB port, a ton of auxiliary inputs including digital, analog, and phono, and of course a connection for Harman Kardon’s iPhone/iPod dock,
The Bridge III. The 2 x 65-watt amp powers the 5-inch 130mm bass-reflex and 1-inch dome tweeters. At $999, it likely sounds great, but as most sexy tabletop systems, the MAS 102 probably carries a hefty premium thanks to the low volume manufacturing run and high-end perceived value.
