blinkwatt -

You're right. The 300 would looks to be the better buy. I zeroed-in on the 500 mainly for the aux input but as long as the unit plays MP3's via CD-RW, I'm all set.

Actually I'm going to the try the aux input cable from EPIQ on the CDR220. I followed MNBoxster's advice and sure enough, the unit seems to be behaving much better. I'll try for the speaker upgrade first and give the Becker a second chance.

Thanks guys.
