Hardest System to Confugure I've ever seen. Sent in for warranty repair TWICE in first two months

 

This system looks nice (though is a magnet for fingerprints and minor scratches). I echo many comments that others have said and on day one, thought I'd give it 5 stars, but there are 4 major issues with this unit:

Audio problems

 

Had this unit for about 6 months when the audio problems started. Added a WD HDTV Live box connected with hdmi and whenever I skip forward or back, the audio cuts out for 5-10 seconds. Updated the WD box but still no fix. Connected directly to TV,...

great little system

 

System worked great right out of the box. It has many features that I did not expect for the price. I use this system as an upgrade in my motorhome.

Great home theater system

 

I bought this for my Samsung TV, XBOX, and PS3 and I am very pleased. It was very easy to set up to my satelite tv box and systems and automatically synced with my samsung tv remote. I would recomend this to anyone who wants better sound for their HDTV.

Great sound, easy setup, good price

Not buying one earlier

Great for a cheap price

 

Exactly what I needed for a really low price. Plenty of HD outlets, great sound, and works perfectly. For only 250 it was perfect for what I needed.

Everything

So far nothing

Bad HDMI board

 

I should have gone with my gut and bought the Denon 391 or 591 I have been lusting over for months

I got a good price on it at a big box store, sorry new egg dont ; be sad you still get you 20% of my pay check per month ; It looks nice, and sounds nice when it works

Set up directions were useless, but when I hooked my PS3 the hdmi audio would cut in and out on the menu and netflix and work fine on bluray, after reading online that is a common problem with this unit, I moved the ps3 to a different HDMI and it...

Better sound than TV speakers

 

Great bang for the buck. Perfect for watching TV, could use a little more power, speaker size and bass for movies and music, but overall adequate for general use in the living room. Excellent Smart Volume that controls volume changes during...

Surround Sound, Smart Volume, Auto Sound Calibration, HDMI

Needs more bass, but good value
