2.0 out of 5 stars Great concept, but..., April 2, 2008

By	Glenn Sakamoto (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Denon S-102 is a great system: It has everything you could want in an attractive, simple, and easy to set-up, package. It plays AM/FM, CDs and DVDs, and the sound is amazing. However, for close to a thousand dollars, one would expect a certain level of quiet in the speakers when switching between functions and low-level DVD watching. Thinking I had a lemon (that made noise), I had a new one shipped to me. But the problem was still there - a 'fluttering' sound coming from the subwoofer that could best be described a combination of distortion and electrical static. Needless to say, I returned both units. I am in the process of looking for a replacement, perhaps of another brand...

5.0 out of 5 stars Good sound, deep base., January 11, 2009

By	M. Thomas - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I wasn't ready to run wires for a full surround experience just yet. So I was left with trying to find the best option with only two speakers and a subwoofer. This unit went on sale and after careful research I decided to purchase. It was either this or the Bose, and the cheapest Bose unit was $300 more. Sound is excellent, no complaints. The subwoofer is even better, producing tight bass. This is probably the best part of the system. Hook-up was easy through HDMI to watch DVD's. Mostly, I watch movies off the satellite so I used an optical cable from the TV to the Denon unit. Sound is top notch.
However, be warned, even though the claim is simulated surround sound, its not truly surround. Users accustomed to a multiple speaker set-up will be disappointed with this.
Other than that, 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than the 5.1 systems., February 16, 2009

By	Y. Muthafar - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my first DENON purchase and am I happy..! quality written all over it.

No clutter to deal with, the wires have clips on the ends that snap in place non of those loose ends you usually find in sound systems, the sound is extra clean (I think it's due to DENON's wires) subwoofer gives you the most incredible bass and there is a volume control for the amount of bass that it makes, the DVD is OK I don't really use it I just tried it and it was OK, the menu looked kind of old school but in a cool way.

It has HDMI, component and AV outputs, one fiber optics digital input, two AUX inputs so you can connect a total of three devices which works out great for me, there is no equalizer you can only adjust bass and treble levels and it has a few preset modes.

Judging by its size you won't believe the sound it produces but for the surround sound fans I don't think it's going to satisfy after all this is a 2.1 system.

Volume level is displayed as db's I mean .. how cool is that?!


Overall very satisfied
