The Philips 508 is a great sounding box for its size which is quite small.

I like the looks of it

It is in my opinion the little brother of the Philips D 8714 .

The technician i m giving boxes to repair has one in black which imho

looks nicer as it compliments the chrome of the speakers.

morning everybody...

thanks traveler for the pic...i think the philips 508 looks better than the magnavox, i like the litlle logos on the black front panel...

yess deech it sounds really good...when turning the spatial stereo mode on, the sound seems to come not only from the front speakers, but even from the sides of the boombox....thats create a really cool sound effect.

i clean it up a little this are the pictures:
