4.0 out of 5 stars RV System, September 19, 2009

By	Big Arrow (Antelope,CA) - See all my reviews

I installed this system in my 5th wheel RV and it works (SO FAR) excellent. I play CD's and DVD's on it and also connected my Direct TV system as well as cable at various RV parks with no problem.

4.0 out of 5 stars Coby Home Theatre, November 7, 2009

Chose this product because of the value (price vs features). Overall I got what I wanted /expected.

Features I was looking for:
-ability to play DivX movies
-HDMI connection
-Surround sound

Bonus features:
-USB Connection

Annoyances:
-vast sound difference between radio and other sources - need dvd player approx level 30, radio level 2. The default setting seems to be level 35, so switching between sources when you turn it on is a pain if you don't turn down the volume
-volume knob on the unit is erratic
-no random selection when playing music (off USB drive)

Installation was easy, works OK with my TV, plays DVD's and videos well, good radio reception.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok unit but missing a few things, November 21, 2009

There is only 1 - 2 channel audio input, no optical inputs for hooking up stuff like your xbox to get true surround sound :(,

Note: I was trying to tune the radio to a local station just so when I switch from DVD to AUX and pass radio channel it wouldn't be on static (I have no intent on using this for its radio), when manually browsing through the stations first off it takes forever and when I get to certain non station channels the speakers would go to static at full 100% volume even if muted.


Until I get the HDMI cables I ordered I opted to hook up the component cables took a bit to figure out you have to turn on the options in the menu to enable component video and you cannot do that unless u first connect the player via standard video cable.
