The sound does not compare. I guess we all have different expectations of what quality sound is. I purchased this product based on the two reviews listed. The old Phillips sounds much better. Virtually no bass and at times gets tinny. I bought it for my wife for Valentine's Day to replace her older Phillips CD boom box in the bathroom. If you buy this expecting "big sound" out of a small package, you will be disappointed. If you just want something to hook your iPod up to, it works.
I was more than please at the sound output of this. It almost sounds like a full size stereo. I may very likely be buying another one.
Well sometimes the one you least expect and the one most likely overlooked, comes up with a winner. Now, get this, what was most suprising was its cost. Okay, it doesn't have the accessories, i.e., carry bag and ultra slimness in design, but its got everything else and more: radio, preset stations, clock, sleep button, digital remote, along with stuff you would expect in the big names. I was going to buy a Logitech MM50 but when I put them side by side, Emerson iTone iP550 won out. For what you get and for the money you pay, you can't beat it. The Logitech had deep sound but reverberated badly. Emerson really surpised me. It was literally more than $70 cheaper than the more popular Logitech.
I was surpised at the clarity and pretty good bass on this model. As a matter of fact, when I put it at its height, it retained a great sound without jumping off the counter. And its cute too. AND, if you really tell the truth, the only difference in this little guy and those "speaker-only" types, it admits to being a boom box rather than just "stereo speakers." Maybe that's why they are trying to charge more for giving you less.
