Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

With vivid picture quality and full-bodied surround sound, KLH's DVZ-2500 is a great starter set for home theater enthusiasts. The system consists of a full-featured DVD player-surround receiver, five compact satellite speakers with 3-inch drivers, and an 8-inch powered subwoofer. The satellites are powered by 25 watts each, and the subwoofer kicks out 50 watts for strong, deep bass.

The system offers Dolby Digital 5.1-channel audio decoding, so you can enjoy the full, immersive effects of discrete multichannel surround sound. Optical and coaxial digital-audio outputs are available in case you want to hook the DVD player up with a CD recorder or other component, and composite-video and S-video outputs relay about 500 lines of high-resolution video to your television. While the above outputs are great, it's good to know that the DVZ-2500 does not have any inputs, so you can't hook other components to it. A convenient FM-AM tuner offers 20 station presets.

The DVD player offers compatibility with standard disc formats, including DVD-Video, VCD, SVCD, DVCD, CD-R, CD-RW, HDCD, and MP3 CD. Ten-bit video decoding and 96 kHz/24-bit audio decoding ensures quality entertainment, and the system is compatible with PAL as well as NTSC playback (in case you want to watch non-region-encoded discs from Europe and Australia). Parental lock keeps kids from watching discs intended for adults. The satellite speaker dimensions are 5.25 inches high by 3.75 inches deep by 3.5 inches wide; the subwoofer measures 11.4 inches high by 11.4 inches deep by 12.4 inches wide. The system includes a remote control.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cannot use with Cable or Satellite TV, December 25, 2002

Even thouth it says it is a receiver. It is not. You cannot hook up your cable TV to it and use the speakers. You can only use the speakers if you play a DVD or listen to the tuner. It is not a true theater in a box as it says. I will be sending it back.

1.0 out of 5 stars Price=Quality Not always, but THIS TIME!, May 26, 2003

I was excited by all the features offered in this unit for the price, but living with it has left me feeling otherwise.

1. Weak weak weak remote. Point directly, push repeatedly, and Maybe it'll work. Buttons are tiny, not lit, etc

2. Lowest volume TOO LOUD! How can a product be made like that?

3. Amplifier dead after 3 months of light use. I'm calling the company tomorrow, it's got a 1 year warranty, but I'm not hopeful. Even if they ship a replacement, I don't think I want it!...

4.0 out of 5 stars KLH DVZ-2500 DVD Player Default Password, May 12, 2003

By 

William Tell (Hollywood, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: KLH DVZ-2500 DVD Home Theater System (Electronics)

The default password mentioned in the instruction book which comes with this product gives the INCORRECT code of 2001. The CORRECT, permanent, hard-coded, will-always-work password is 3308. The problem is that the default for the parental lock is ON. And there are many movies you cannot watch without unlocking the parental lock. Then, when you look up how to turn it off in the instructions, the wrong code is given. After calling tech support I learned that this was a mistake in the instructions and that the correct default code is 3308.
