5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased, March 11, 2007

I was pleased with the ease of setup. It interfaced well with my 42 inch Panasonic Plasma TV as there was no issues. The room where I use the surround system is relatively small hence I had no issue with the 40 watt system. I do agree that the speaker wires to the front speakers are too short considering the woofer is off to the side. The selection for surround sound options works well for me as does the adjustment of levels. I think the 40 watt system is good value.

Had a limited budget. Rolling Stone magazine, gave this home theatre in a box; a solid review. A low cost system with HDMI. 1000 watts, 5 disc cd/dvd player and SMALL. Sounds great and I've ran it HARD. MOVIES, SPORTS and MUSIC. CLEAR cranked all the way up, and its LOUD.

Could use some more input channels, but there are ways around that and it wasnt hard. Highly recommend! I scored it for 250 DELIVERED!!!

I don't have a lot of experience with these so I did alot of research to find that this system had a lot of the features I wanted for a good price. After purchasing and installing, I've got no major beefs with the product. The sound is good, but the video "up-conversion" performed by the dvd player isn't impressive on my Hdtv. I haven't used a burned dvd w/ adhesive label so I can't comment regarding that bug, yet. I'll report back if anything goes awry.
