Not going to buy another Bluray system till I have to. This unit has proven itself to me, so I got one for my Gramps. Great Sound, and beautiful picture with nice HDTV. Easy to navigate menu and access all content. Yeah, I'm very happy with this Sony.

We got this to go with our new TV and what a great package for under $300 ($500 elsewhere)! It took me a little while to figure out the functions and how to get them to display on the TV, but that probably had more to do with my non-techie self and trying to figure out the TV at the same time. The auto calibration mic is a nice bonus and helps you set up the surround sound without having to know what you are doing. I did end up moving the mic around a few times to get the balance I wanted, but very easy to do. The iPod dock is nice and you can also work your iPod with the stereo remote which is cool. Don't yet have any blu-rays to watch on it, but the DVDs look great. I also found that it converted older DVDs with full screen/4:3 ratio to play as 16:9 and fit the TV. It's possible that the DVD already had that ability, but I don't think so because it never worked like that on other DVD players. Another nice feature is that while this system does have wired speakers, it has the ability to be wireless/whole house if you buy the Sony wireless (AIR?) set up.

The only thing to note is the speaker wire connections. It was listed as "spring clip" or something, which I assumed (yeah, I know) meant the wire went directly into the receiver & speakers - no "adapter" type thing. Well, it does go into the speaker like that, but there is a plastic thing that plugs into the receiver. There is a decent amount of speaker wire (though very small gauge) but I needed more. I was able to get some additional speaker wire and splice it to connect to the provided wire. Then I just connected the new wire right into the speakers. Not a big deal and it works fine, but I would have preferred to just get a longer run of larger gauge wire to run directly without the splices.

All in all - very very pleased with this system. Definitely a great buy!

i loved the way it sounds and you dont even have to raise the volume to high to hear the music, i would definitely recommend this to a friend

With the money spent, we got blue ray Disc, home theater, iPod docking station - what a deal. The sound quality is good, and picture turns out great. The bonus is iPod docking station that we didn't expect.

The system is easy to set up. It was done in about 30 minutes.

Sony Bravia electronics are programmed to work seamlessly with each other. If you use this home theater system with a Sony Bravia TV, the compatibility is excellent. As home theater systems go, this one was easy to connect and program. The remote control includes every single operation for the system and the TV, even the TV settings (if you are using a Sony Bravia TV. I don't know about other TV brands). So you don't have to use the TV's remote to change the TV's settings, which I think is great. The only reason I give this system four stars instead of five is because the main unit doesn't have a clock and the remote control doesn't have an eject button for the blu-ray disc player. I'm not a lazy person, I just think these features should be standard on all home theater systems.

This is my first sound system. I would say it is pretty easy to set up as long as you read the directions. I recommend buying speaker stands or if you have a good place to blend the speakers in that would be helpful. The center speaker for voices is pretty weak. We watched inception on the bluray but the voices were difficult to pick up but the bass and surround speakers were fine. the bass really was great if you like that kind of stuff. I guess i have to look into if I can adjust the center speaker more or if i would have to upgrade to a larger speaker. anyway overall good product for the price you pay

I hate to say I got ripped off on this system. I bought this because I wanted a direct connection to Netflix, unfortunatly it says it does in the ad but it is not compatible. I already had a DVD player and didn't even need this one, now we have 3 none of which are compatible with steaming video/Netflix. Well at least the sound system is decent, that is all.
