Perfect Stereo for the Porsche Fan December 6, 2008
John S. Irving
Right from the beginning the creative genius of Porsche Design is apparent. The all black, heavy cardboard outer box slides open to reveal a cleverly packaged grouping of components, accessories and instructions. Safely ensconced in a form fitting foam cutout it would take one deranged delivery driver to damage this system while in transit.

Your package comes complete with the base unit, a universal "Made for Ipod" docking station, power supply, remote control (more on this later), AM loop antenna, multi-lingual instructions and warranty card(s).

My overall impression of the P'9120 is very positive. The instructions were simple to follow and setting it up was a snap. The clean lines and linear design are exactly what you would expect from Porsche and Eton. The ergonomic controls were intuitive and easy to operate. The sound quality is exceptional and did I mention the shortwave radio? If you're not familiar with shortwave, this radio (with its built in antenna) gives you a great opportunity to explore the hundreds and thousands of stations broadcasting worldwide on this unique range of radio waves. It's a great big world to explore!

FEATURES:

* Double wall construction for superior acoustics. Okay, admittedly we're not audiophiles here at 993C4S, so we can't break this down in scientific terms. However, whatever it is, it works! The unit sounds great.
* OLED alphanumeric display.
* AM/FM/Shortwave with separate Made for iPod dock.
* Metal remote control with torch (that's a flashlight for all of here in the US.)
* XM Satellite ready (don't forget that Sirrius and XM are now one.)
* Dual alarm clocks (this is a must in our garage as we depart at separate times.)
* Back-up power source for your presets and clock in the event of a power-failure.

If asked, my only two suggestions for improvement or change would be as follows:

1. Provide some type of back lighting for the remote. While I like the heft and feel of the remote it becomes a challenge to use in the dark (tough to shuffle through the soundtrack to Le Mans) even with the built in flashlight.
2. At this price range, the four batteries needed to provide the back-up power source for your pre-sets and clock settings should be included.

I believe you get what you pay for; in this case a high quality table top stereo system with exceptional features, sound and design.
