This is an impressive little 7.1 system that is really priced right. What we like about it most is the fact that for $599 you get what is essentially a $399 A/V receiver. That means that you get 7 speakers and a 10-inch powered subwoofer for just $200....

i really enjoy this system... had no real problems with the hookup... sound quality is good

one of the wires wasnt long enough to wrap around the door frames to get to the back of the room... though to be fair i gotta pretty big room

DISCLAIMER: I am not an accomplished audiophile; I'm just a guy on a budget, who likes good sound.

Feature-richness makes the remote a bit of a challenge. It's a 7.1 system, so in order to take full advantage of the system's sound separation, you'll need a space that allows you literally to surround listeners with speakers. I don't have such a...

Great value

More inputs that support HD are needed (HDMI, Component, Optical) and less outdated inputs (S-Video, RCA) which mostly go unused

Just carrying coals to Newcastle here. The reviews are honest, this system brought the movies to life. Great bass, and surround listening modes for every source. I was considering a different system for about $150 less, I'm so glad I resisted the urge...

Heavier gauge speaker wire (and longer) would have been nice, and maybe I should have known the digital coax and optical cables wouldn't be included. I have my Samsung TV optical output connected but no access that I can find.

Very loud system, solid bass, good number of inputs.

No back light on the remote, HDMI Passthrough.

I have personally been into Home Audio and Car Audio for most of my life. I finally started piecing together my home theatre setup and I decided to go with this. It's a very nice setup. It look's great with the gloss black on the enclosures, very...

Of course with the good you always have the bad. I would have personally liked to have a little thicker wire. I know with the little amount of power being used the supplied speaker wire is good enough but just having a little bigger would have made me...

It's all about the sound stupid. After reading a gazillion reviews, it occured to me the reviews on this HT system most oftern included a comment about how good the system sounded. Other reviews for more expensive systems often left out comments about...

The design is a bit "old school" -- it ain't particularly slim or sleek. The HDMI are pass-through. So what. I knew this going into it. The LED could be a bit more sophisticated, I guess. But in the end, there realy isn't much to complain about at all.

The sound is incredible, sub is huge amd powerful. I like the included mic calibration function. Color coded wire made hookup simple. Still tinkering to get the best sound. Dropped Star Wars in and watched a few scenes. My 17 year old son said it...

As metioned in other posts this thing generates some serious heat, not a problem since my rack is well vented. The speaker wire is thin but I plan on running better wire anyway. The speakers are large but that is well described if you actually read the...

This is a great mid to low priced system. The sound is crisp and clean, the bass is deep. It has many set-up and tweaking options. This is not a Bose, but then nothing is, however for under $400, this is the best out there.

This is not a micro system for those of you who do not read specs....not a con for me, but the speakers and sub are much bigger and heavier than most modern HT in a box (think shelf system stereo size). My UPS guy nearly had a stroke bringing it in...lol
