Opinions on best mini system for $300-500

OK.. it seems my current Pioneer minisystem is crapping out, not wanting to read CDRs after about 3/4 years of use... I'm shopping around for a replacement system, and would like to hear some suggestions.

I've been eyeing a quality japanese made unit, like the Yamaha GX505, but I'm not even sure if it's out of my $400-600 CDN price range, because it's impossible to find one around here.

I'm more interested in sound QUALITY rather than QUANTITY. (thus, the boom-box all-bass 2-many subwoofer JVC systems are out of the question!). 50 watts RMS is adequate power... 3 or 5 disc changer is fine. CDRs must read, CDRW readability is a bonus... 5 band equalizer a bonus too...

Don't want one with a million flashy LEDs either, i want a soundsystem, not a christmas tree.

I can't quite find anything to fit my bill...

What has everyone got?
