I just had to leave a review on this system, especially if you have a Samsung HDTV for your television, If you want the big theater enjoyment with the big theater sound, you can't go wrong with the purchase of this system. One thing I really enjoy about this system was I was able to up grade to a Blue Ray DVD and connected it to this system with now the pleasure of DVD and Blue ray without compromising the great big theater sound. I love this system and have nothing but good thing to reply about it. Purcahse it for yourself and start enjoying the big theater sound, you will love it even more with a Samsung 52 inch HDTV, and Samsung Blue Ray DVD player. It keeps me from using so many remote controls. Just one controls everything! Let me add something else, with the purchase of the Blue ray DVD player I'm able to obtain NetFlex video's direct through the internet and Pandora music as well through this system. Your rear speaker are connected wireless so you don't need to run addition wire to them. Overall you will enjoy how much enjoyment you will have out of this little great system. I just love it!

3.0 out of 5 stars No HDMI Input, December 14, 2008

This review is from: Samsung HT-TWZ412 5.1 5-Disc 1000-Watt 1080p Home Theater System (Electronics)

The description states that this unit has both HDMI input and output. However, it only has HDMI output.

Also, the unit arrived without the wireless card. A quick call to Samsun and their customer service had one on the way. It is not here yet, so we will see how the wireless speakers work once they arrive.

You might want to consider replacing the speakerwire that comes with the unit for the front speakers. The rear speaker wires can not be replace with a better cables due to the special connectors needed (unless you want to do some surgery...)

I am still trying to decide if I should return the unit since it does not have an HDMI in. It will depend upon how well the opical audio in cable works. If I still can not pump the sound from our Samsung HD TV (LN52A75) to this unit, then I will most likely have to return it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good system, not impressed with the design., April 16, 2011

This review is from: Samsung HT-TWZ412 5.1 5-Disc 1000-Watt 1080p Home Theater System (Electronics)

This is a nice, versatile "system in a box" that produces good sound quality, allows you to connect an iPod, and much more. I haven't really used the wireless feature of the system, so I cannot speak to that functionality.

I have one complaint that is kind of a "deal killer" for me. Since I bought the unit a couple of years ago, the fan in the back of the unit stopped functioning properly. The fan still goes, but the fan makes a loud "grinding" noise that is extremely obnoxious. I imagine that this is replaceable, but I'm not sure how. The best solution I've found is to tap the back of the unit with my finger until the whirring stops. and to leave the unit on. That way, the fan keeps spinning and doesn't start making the loud grinding noise again. (Until I turn the unit on and off again.)
