I received this CD player as a gift from the hospital I work for as a 15th anniversary gift. It's ok. It doesn't take up much space on my kitchen counter and the CDs have a nice sound. But, the radio is terrible. The antenna cannot be adjusted well enough to get rid of the static from most stations, so I can never listen to the radio. I would not have purchased this myself.I plan to replace it in the future.
Rating: - Alright for what I need
This is a fair product for the price. I really like the auxiliary line! It is small and compact and has a good sound. The only real annoyance I have with the system is that it will always reset the volume to the factory settings every time the stereo is turned on - and it is louder than I like. Other than that, I think it is a good little stereo.

We purchased a Gpx Vertical Home Music System for both of our kids at Christmas.They are very attractive and have a lot of features for the price.
The unit comes with a multi-function remote and cable to hook up an MP3 player.The remote is simple to use.Our five year old mastered it in just a few minutes.The cable plugs into the earphone jack of your MP3 player so it works with any model, even the IPod Shuffle. My kids love this feature because they can listen to their favorite songs without the hassle of changing CDs or the discomfort of wearing earplugs.
Set up is simple.The main unit and speakers also have slots so they can be mounted on a wall if desired.
The sound quality is acceptable, but not great, which is why I only gave the system three stars.Add better speakers and this could be an outstanding system. Also, there are no tone controls, only four preset equalizer settings that you can choose.This last is a minor concern;if you want absolute control over tone settings you should expect to pay a lot more.
Overall we are very pleased with this system.This is a very good system for children and young teens and is perfectly adequate for those adults who don't need audiophile quality.
Rating:  - BAD sound--unless you're a bat
I ordered this as a Christmas gift for my tin-eared octogenarian father to listen to his Lawrence Welk (yecch) CDs. I boxed it up less than 5 minutes after it arrived, so it can be returned.
The sound is so screechy it hurts your ears right down to your toes. Absolutely no bass response. Can't think of one music genre that would sound even mediocre on this system.
It looks cool, can fit on a shelf or be hung on the wall, and it has a smoked plastic door over the CD that rises via a motor, so I generously gave it two stars. However, the things that look like speakers on the outside of the grilles are fake, just inert hunks of plastic made to look like tweeters. Shame on GPX.
Please don't waste your money. Buy a system that you can listen to and inspect in a B&M store.
I ended up buying an iSymphony micro-system from Radio Shack for a similar price, but it has a remote control, bass boost, and a surprisingly rich sound for the price. Dear old Dad was happy beyond belief at how great his "music" sounded on it--he stares at the unit while the music plays the way folks watched their radios in the forties...spooky, but he smiles all the while. That made my Christmas merry!

This stereo is a good size for thr desk or any small place. Be aware that the speakers do not attach and there is no bal control for the speakers. Sound is not very bassy but the speakers are small...4" dia.but otherwise they sound good. Nice features , remote is small and handy.
I still recommend this stereo for the Money.
