1.0 out of 5 stars not good, December 8, 2006

By	Jingshao Chen (Fremont, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just bought this from Fry's but I have to return it:

1. the YUV output simply does not work. I can just see gray scaled picture.
2. The rear surrounding speakers do not give any sound. No matter how I adjust the volume.

I do not recommend anyone buy this.

2.0 out of 5 stars big pain, October 5, 2006

By	K. Biddle (Northwest Mississippi) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am not the world's smartest NOR dumbest when it comes to electronics but for the life of me, I cannot figure out why when I point the remote directly at the system and push PLAY, the system instead increases the sound... or when I push VOLUMN UP, the system begins to fast forward the DVD. I am pretty sure I have a freaked out lemon here since it even occasionally occurs when pushing the buttons on the unit itself. When I do get the remote "working" the way it should, I have not been able to get the sound to be anywhere close to what it should be. The rear speakers are exceptionally low and cannot be adjusted, so unless you want the entire system up full blast, the surround sound from behind is pointless (I know it shouldnt be as loud as the front, but again, I'm talking almost non-existant). I suppose in this day, Coby can use the excuse that it's only $100 but for me, I don't have spare $100 lying all over the place. For now, I am out the money and out the system and will have to be satisfied with the sound coming out of my tv.

Did not take long and it was broken. Not very good quality at all.
