4.0 out of 5 stars Great sound, slightly clunky to use, June 28, 2009
This review is from: Samsung HT-Z522 Home Theater System (Electronics)
These are my first impressions after having my HT-TZ522 up for 2 days:

First off, my purchase of this unit was based on the following criteria:

1. I already had a Samsung HDTV.
2. Limited space for the components/speakers.
3. Wireless feature.
4. Price.

Pros:
Firstly, the unit sounds great. The speakers seemed quite lightweight during setup so I was worried about the sound quality, but they sound great and the system produces more than enough volume for my small media room. Surround effects differ from disc to disc of course but when present they really add to the enjoyment. The wireless feature has worked flawlessly and without any noticeable noise (the wireless receiver is behind a sofa). CDs sound great too, but beware - turn off any of the DSP/EQ settings before you watch a DVD or you might lose the center channel (dialogue was going through the subwoofer!?). Upconverted DVDs look just as good here as on the Samsung DVD player the HT unit replaced.

Cons:
The promise of easy integration with a Samsung HDTV isn't completely fulfilled - you will need to keep both remotes handy as the HT remote doesn't have all the features the TV remote does. For most common uses the HT remote does suffice though. Powerup/powerdown of the units together has been somewhat glitchy as well, though I may have something set wrong. The surround speakers only have provisions for hanging on a wall, and thus with the separately purchased speaker stands I had to use double-sided tape to mount them (as opposed to screwing onto the stand). Also, my unit defaulted to several non-optimal settings, particularly the DVD outputing only 480i - upconversion is not in the onscreen menus and is instead cycled through on the remote.

Overall it is a solid package that has met my expectations.

3.0 out of 5 stars Samsung HT-Z522 Home Theater System, June 8, 2009
By Scientist "MW" (Babylon, NY) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Samsung HT-Z522 Home Theater System (Electronics)
Pros: Looks good. Sounds good. Wireless rear speakers. Good remote control. Matches the Samsung 52" LCD TV.

Cons: DVD changer/amplifier is very big. Rear speaker wireless box emits high-frequency (10-12 khz) whining noise that is annoying to people with good hearing (I'm too old to have good hearing). This is probably due to the cooling fan.

Not bad for the price. Would be better if high-frequency noise were gone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Demos do not do this system justice..., July 15, 2009
By J. Kidd (Dallas TX) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Samsung HT-Z522 Home Theater System (Electronics)
I shopped the Samsung HT-Z522 Home Theater System in a couple of brick and mortar locations to hear it perform. I wasn't very satisfied with what I heard but niether was I satisfied with Sony or Panasonic. I decided to go with the Samsung simply because of the compatibility with my Samsung LNT-4665F TV. When I set-up HT-Z522 Home Theater System in my den I was blown away! The sound is superb, both movies and music,and the 1080p uptick on my standard DVD's is remarkable.
I also have to say that I'm very happy with the Amazon service. I chose the free standard shipping and received my order quicker than I expected.
