4.0 out of 5 stars Happy non-audioplile, October 19, 2007

Just purchased this system to go along with my 52" Sharp HDTV. I have been looking for several months to find a suitable system. I even brought a Bose system home only to find out it does not have an HDMI interface. This system has that and more. I am a non-audiophile who just wants good sound when watching TV and movies. This system certainly provides that. The connections are reasonably staight forward and use standard cabling unlike some system that have custom cabling that is often too short for proper installation. The only negative is the fine print on the receiver and DVD player. I need to have a flashlight to read it. Otherwise I am extremely happy.

I've had this for a few weeks now and I'm happy with it. The reciever and speakers sound fine, and the 5-disc DVD player is very nice. My dislikes with this are that it comes with two remotes, one for the DVD an one for the reciever. I purchased a Harmony remote that works great, so it's not that big of a deal but still...why two remotes for one system? My other dislike is that all the menu's and options for the reciever are a bit difficult to navigate. I appreciate the clean appearance of the receiver (not a lot of knobs/buttons), and it's a bonus that the kids aren't always playing with it but...if I want to change the sound/tone level of a speaker it takes me seveal attempts to get to the right menu. In time, once I get used to the navigation, I'm sure it won;t bother me as much but in the beginning, it can be a little frustrating.

DVD player is great. The one thing I love about it is that it handles jpeg discs, with audio too! I was really impressed with this and given the we have a new LCD on the wall, it is a truly great feature to have. I did one already and my wife was over the top thrilled with it, and the kids like seeing themselves up on the big screen too. Overall, the DVD player plays fine, looks good, and with the 5 discs it's nice to keep a few of the kids movies in there rather than swapping them out individually. It also remembers the position of each disc when you stop it so you can pick right up where you left off. Plays MP3's fine too, but I don't think you can randomize the playback, either that or maybe I just haven't figured it out yet, not sure.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for the money, November 7, 2007

Amazon had a screaming deal on this so I picked it up for about half price of Best Buy and other retailers.

The included speakers are pretty weak, I ended up using my old speakers instead.

The included speaker wire is long, but very thin. I bought my own.

The HDMI pass through works as advertised and the sound is good through better quality speakers.

Not a whole lot of configuration options and not a ton of inputs, but this is a very decent unit for the price.

The upscaling DVD changer works great and is probably the best feature of the bundle.
