Good product for the price

 

Well worth the money for a small room. would not consider this for a room over 200sq ft. Alot of bang for the buck though.

I recently had to down size and sold a nice klipsch system. My room was 12x14 and to small for anything to large. I purchased this system and was very pleased with the quality of the sound. Easy to set up and good crisp sound

Proprietary plugs make changing speaker tough. Sub woofer can not be adjusted at all, however for a small room the base is OK. Not alot of ways to adjust the sound period, pretty much all pre-set

System installed fairly easy. Remote control is a little busy. Would of liked to see more definition between TV and stereo controls. Once I get used to it I'm sure it will be fine.

Good fit for Bravia TV

This is a very easy system to set up and works well with my Sony TV. The wireless speakers are not exactly wireless but they don't connect to the receiver, so I was able to put them were I wanted to. Just had to move them around a bit to plug the...

I have a Sony Bravia 40 inch high definition LCD. I wanted a sound system that was compatible and would integrate well with the TV. After reviewing several surround sound systems, I decided on the Sony Bravia Theater System, due to the specs but...

The product is good so far. I've only used for about a month. The subwoofer is great. The up-convert is good too. The system does go well with a Sony Bravia HDTV.
