the dvd player is great but if your looking to use the subwoofer for anything buy something else the sub is under the bottom which makes the sound muffled and the speakers are not that loud for a kids room maybe but not anything else

I bought this system for my Daughter's room to hook up to a small video projector. The DVD player wouldn't play about half of my Daughter's DVDs. These same DVDs would play just fine on any of our other home DVD players. The message we would receive was "LOADING", but the DVD just wouldn't play.

When the system would load the DVD correctly the speakers sounded great, but the DVD player would skip. I tried a DVD cleaner, but the problem just got worse.

One month later the DVD player wouldn't work at all. The speakers are still working fine.

We have another Coby portable DVD player with a built in 7in screen. This DVD player works great and we have never had any problems with it and are using it in place of the DVD player you are considering buying.

I would pass on this model, but don't reject all of Coby's products.

Gotta say this little set up works great for a space that just wouldn't support a full 5.1 system. When you have a small apartment, paper thin walls, and a neighbor who is just primed to lodge a noise complaint... well you get the point. I was getting a lot of "muddy" sound from the TV speakers, and my DVD player just went. This little baby sure took care of both. Only real drawback is that it is only a composite out, but can I really complain when I only have standard def. DVDs?

The Remote did not work ever. The Dvd player is horrible its cheap and is a sucky one. The Subwoofer is just a box it is not a great subwoofer and the speakers are Fine they work the best our of everything. Spend you money on a better system its not worth more than 10 bucks.

Less than 1 month after setting this up the speakers stopped working. It was attached to my tv and the sound wasn't bad. It improved the bass noticeably. Then one day I turned on the tv and NO speakers. Not worth anything now.

I was looking for a small Home Theater System for my bedroom and most were to large and bulky. The Coby DVD 419 Home theater system fit the bill perfectly. The DVD player worked great and contrary to other reviews I found the sound to be quite good.

For the price, size, and look of this item it can't be beat!
