This is the absolute worst electronic product that I have ever bought. The remote constantly sends the wrong signal to the system. I will press the root menu button the stop signal is sent, or if I press the next or previous chapter the setup menu comes up. More and more DVDs that I try and play with this system do not register and they work fine with my other DVD systems that I have. There are also lots of programming glitches that prevent proper use of the system. They were lucky that I had already passed the 90 day warranty. It is strange that all these problems started about 100 days into the use of the product. Customer Support just ignored my problems since I was past the warranty.

i got this item. 3 out 5 speakers did not work.. and coby would just not care and let amazon refund it... not even a day and this thing wouldn't work... dont buy it.. defective.

Coby DVD-937 5.1 Channel DVD Player/Receiver Home Theater Speaker System For the price of this product I feel its hard to beat.I hooked it up and everything was just fine.Had a couple of small questions and called coby customer service,questions were answered in a few minutes.So far works great...

this item is really glitchy and has alot of malfunctions. forexample if you use a remote that changes the channel on the television the surround sound will go crazy and will turn up really loud out of no where. its an ok starter item which is why i got it but i have had it for a year now and i am already done with it. two of the five speakers have blown and i can hear that the rest are about to blow also. my advice is to buy a little nicer one. i bought this to play on my xbox because i thought it would be cool if it had surround sound. when i got it only two speakers worked unless i was watching a dvd. I called Coby and they said that it only supports the two front speakers and sub when you are useing it for anything but a dvd or cd. this kinda defeats the purpose of buying it because a regular tv has two front speakers so there isnt really a difference. i made a big mistake of buying this product. take my advice and dont buy it. Dont go Coby go for sony or bose!

I picked this system up because it was a great price, but never has that old saying that "cheap things end up being more expensive in the long run" been more true.

I had the same problems with the remote sending the wrong signals, and as soon as I cranked up the volume to room-filling levels, the amplifier blew out and the thing is shot.

Trust me, you will be better off spending a few more bucks and getting something decent.

When I hook up this so call player,all it did was smoke.
I Sent it back waiting to see if I get my money back.

this is the biggest piece of junk i ever bought dont buy nothing worked on it

These speakers were received as a gift and worked amazing for the first 2 hours, speakers were beautiful, and the dvd player did its job, until the actual dvd player/receiver refused to work at all, lost dvd inside, was forced to unscrew the whole thing. The speakers however are worth it if you already have a receiver and are looking for a decent set of speakers or if you want to try your luck with the dvd player, otherwise go somewhere else for a full system set

I HAVE HAD COBY PRODUCTS BEFORE, AND THIS ONE IS ALSO GREAT. IT WAS EASY TO PUT TOGETHER,ALL THE SPEAKERS WORK,THE RADIO WORKS GREAT, AND I DON'T HAVE TO TURN ON MY TV TO PLAY THE RADIO WHICH IS A PLUS.AS LONG AS YOU FOLLOW ALL THE DIRECTIONS FOR THE PRODUCT YOU WILL HAVE MANY YEARS OF USE FROM COBY. IF YOUR SPEAKERS ARE NOT ALL COMING ON GO BACK AND CHECK THAT YOU HAVE PUT THE WIRERS IN PROPERLY, IF YOU DON'T THE SPEAKER WILL NOT WORK, THIS IS WITH ALL SPEAKERS IF YOU PUT TO MUCH IN OR TO LITTLE IN THEY WILL NOT WORK. PUT THE WIRE IN ALL THE WAY TO THE RUBBER COATING DO NOT STICK RUBBER COATING IN THIS WILL PREVENT THE SPEAKER FROM WORKING. I HOPE THIS HELPS SOME PEOPLE WITH THE SPEAKER PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE READ IN SOME OF THE REVIEWS. PUT YOUR EAR UP TO EVERY SPEAKER TO SEE IF IT IS WORKING. THE 5.1 SURROUND ONLY WORKS WITH DVD MOVIES AND THE TWO FORWARD SPEAKERS WILL ONLY WORK WITH THE RADIO OR MUSIC CD THIS IS HOW THIS COBY HOME THEATER 5.1 WORKS. I HOPE THIS REVIEW HELPS EVERYONE OUT THERE. THIS IS A EXCELLENT PRODUCT FROM COBY

Its hard for me to write a review for an item I never received. I ordered this over a month ago and never got it. I'm still waiting on my refund of $95.88. I have ordered several items from this site and have always been satisfied until now. I had to rate the item in order to submit this review but please disregard the gold star.
