The updated HouseParty model has two 3in driver speakers that together offer 30W of sound and a bass channel that works with the speakers to enhance low resonance sound.
The black and brushed aluminum stereo system has an FM radio with 10 presents as well as seven EQ settings including Jazz, Pop, Rock, Flat, Classic and Bass. Settings and radio station and track information is displayed on an LED panel. Playback is controlled via a remote control supplied with the unit.
