Thanks though, if anyone has anything to say, I appreciate it.
I want some nice sound and bass for mostly hip hop, RnB, oldies, and yeah just some dancing music that'll sound good.

Sorry I'm late as I've been on other sites for awhile.I would recommend the Denon DM33S mini system.Why?because I own one.It's around your price range of $500.I needed a mini system only and ended up with the Denon after much research.If you have anymore questions I'll be around.
