Philips, I am disappointed!

 

Philips, I am disappointed!

This stereo has been in a box since it broke almost a year ago. I have found Philips to be one of the worst electronics manufacteurs out there. Their products just don't last under normal use. Plus, they really do not stand behind their product. I am...

Good product, good deal

I spent a lot of time hunting all the on-line merchants for a good quality tuner speaker combination package to use with my DVD, VCR, phono, cassette tape, and laserdisc players. Since this was for use in a less-than-ideal home environment, I didn't...

Incredible

This is an awesome sound system! No matter what size the room, it makes you feel like your in a small movie theater. The receiver does great with all dolby 5.1., and it works great with Digital Cable or a Dish. Buy this and you won't be sorry!

Decent sound

 

Decent sound

if you don't have a lot of money, this is the one to get. you will get a decent sound. MX966 is good for movie but not for music. If you can afford more, I would recommend to buy the Receiver and Speakers separately, instead of buying them in a package.

Phillps MX966 Home Theater System

.... Overall, I'm very impressed by the quality and value of this product. The system provides plenty of power for anyone with a small to mid-size room, and the clarity is better than one might expect from small home theater in a box speakers. The...

Terrific Sound System!

 

Terrific Sound System!

The digital sound processing in this system is fantastic. It is extremely powerful at 600 watts and the subwoofer produces rich deep bass. With 10 sudio inputs, it has more than enough for all the components now available. If you have invested in a...
