GREAT FIND! Yeah, it IS very cool looking. I bought one myself recently although mine has yet to arrive so I don't know what to expect yet. However, a nice smallish box would be welcome change. The sleek classic look made it a bunch easier to make that decision.

How does it sound and what is the watt draw?

I agree, great find. I want one in a major way. People here are reluctant to give them up. .And the pickings are slim on the bay.

Four things that make that a kick-ass mini:

1 - Blue woofers
2 - Dual antennas
3 - Separate bass and treble
4 - Metal tape capability

WOW!
Look at that full dose of chrome on the speakers.
This Mini Slim is absolutely Swizzle.
Minis are cool and appropriate for places like the coffee house and post office when a larger box would freak every one out and you're carrying other things like a back pack.
Good one!!

Great catch! Thought you might like to see the MR-V8 Japanese version... in blue!

And a Japanese ad for it...

 

[redbenjoe]

totally absolutely love that blue job --
is that your #1 personal fav ??

 

[ViennaSound]

Shakaboom, the blue one is a really winner.
But i love all of them.
The whole series are beauty - and every brand a littlebit different looking.

This is my personal favourite of mine:

Love it a lot... for all the reasons mentioned: separate bass and treble, dual antennas, chrome trim, solid/heavy feel. It's a small box that looks and acts like a big one. Decent sound, too! Not your everyday mini.

Actually, I'd be happy with any of the versions... Sanyo or aka.

Plus... look at that original price in Japan: around $500! Sanyo was serious with this one.
