In addition to its cost-effective, multi-functional, and high level of accessibility, our MC101 Series deliver fast, compact and feather-light home entertainment solutions that are humbly perfect.
We know that you want elegantly designed technologies for your home so we made our MC101 home entertainment centers with ultra-slim silver brushed aluminum covers and decorated it with a black plate and light-up LED power button.
