Review: Sharp XL-BB20D

Clean and Minimal Design

 The Sharp All-in-one Hi-Fi Sound System is a compact solution for your listening needs that comes in a wood composite housing finished in a dark oak effect. A large LCD display with blue backlight adorns the front of the unit. The unit comes with a Digital Radio tuner which is nice but to my knowledge, nobody broadcasts on DAB or DAB+ in Malaysia. However, the Bluetooth connectivity is two-way which allows for you to not only stream music from your device but also connect your wireless headphones for private listening. There’s also a built-in CD player which means you can finally listen to all those old albums you’ve been keeping in storage for so long.

Wireless and Wired Connections

On top of Bluetooth wireless music streaming and connectivity to wireless headphones. The Sharp All-in-one Hi-Fi Sound System has USB playback and charging for your devices. If you’re like me and still hang on to some wired headphones, the sound system still has a 3.5mm headphone jack for some good old analogue headphone goodness.

Good Reverberations

 The Sharp XL-BB20D might be fairly small for a sound system but it still packs a decent punch with its 100W speakers. It’s not powerful enough to thoroughly bother your neighbours, but for days where you just want to cut loose in the living room with some beats, the speakers can hold their own. The sound produced from the speakers had good amount of richness and deepness which was surprising for its price point.
