5.0 out of 5 stars Space Saver. Great Performance & Features. Many Hookups., September 20, 2003

Ruchi Mathur (Edison, NJ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sony DVD/VHS Home Theater System (HT-V1000DP) (Electronics)

I live in a Apartment so was obviously very Space Conscious. Was Originally looking for a DVD+VHS Player combination only, but eventually decided to go for the Home Theater containing everything I'd need. Great Speaker Performance for my needs (much much more than I need). A Space Saver indeed with the DVD Player & VHS Units combined.

I also have a MultiSystem TV, SVCD Player+Tape Deck, another MultiSystem VHS & CableBox in house & was really Impressed by the Ability to Connect all of these Devices Interconnected using AV1, AV2, RFin RFOut & more hookup Connections. I & wife drew a neat connecting diagram & were able to hookup all of them in 1-2 hours. Right now all of my above Devices can Play on this Fantastic 5 Speaker+SubWoofer System.

We also compared Sony & the Panasonic HT-810V Model & this was clearly a Winner since we needed lot more devices hooked up to the Speaker System. A HomeTheater with a Separate Receiver is always the Best Idea & I am glad we made that decision.

We enjoy the Product a Lot. I would recommend it to everyone who is looking to buy a Home Theater.

Shop for it Online. There are many other Retailers giving better prices for the Product. Actually we bought it from B&H Photo Video where inspite of the Shipping Price, the Cost was lower than Amazon & CircuitCity with Free Shipping.

Future Growth with a more Powerfull Receiver is also possible which is also a nice thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvelous, December 29, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Sony DVD/VHS Home Theater System (HT-V1000DP) (Electronics)

This system is the greatest investment I could have bought. Easy setup took a little more than one hour, got everything up and running that night. One flaw in Sony's design is some of the cords are to short. They don't reach down to the floor. There are many plugs and not enough outlets, I think they should all be able to plug into the reciever to take up only one outlet

4.0 out of 5 stars Good System, December 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Sony DVD/VHS Home Theater System (HT-V1000DP) (Electronics)

I recently purchased at circuit city, $50 less than amazon.com. I thought they were partners? The dvd player didn't work but return was no problem. The sound is very clear and the bass is strong. I have to keep the bass turned down due to apartment living. Hookup was kind of a pain. Once I discarded the directions and used logic it worked.

Remote for the dvd is a bit poor as one button acts as left, right, up, down and enter. It is easy to hit enter unintentionally.

I don't think the product description makes it clear but this is also an am/fm tuner.

Overall, I'm very satisfied and would buy it again.
