a good system with some major flaws

(2 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jul 7, 2006
i got mine from a friend so i didn't get any speakers or remote but with the 6 speakers i have it works well accept I cant have the volume over 17 without it turning itself off.

about the sub problem i agree they most likely forgot to change a setting but if you think you've done everything right (right settings, right calls to costomer support ect.) and it still doesn't work; deal with it or return it.

but overall i think its a good machine (that needs to be able to use its full potential).

Great price average receiver

It has worked well. The sound is good but not blaring if you crank it. I paid $150 so I am not complaining about the product, just the design. To turn on the subwoofer you must hit a button on the remote and then a button on the receiver. Why not just one button? To switch from DTS to 5.1 DD to stereo is just as ridiculous. Product is good but the design engineers must be reprimanded for not making it user friendly.

not a bad system for the price

i bought this system and its not bad for the price u pay,the subwoofer is cheap at 50watts not alot of power ,but its great for a decent home theater system,oh and by the way i found out its not a great system to run your equalizer through,cause it maxes out easy.

don't necessarily believe that 1 star guy...

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Aug 23, 2001
well...

he says that no subwoofer would work on his receiver, even when trying out other subwoofers from bestbuy. chances are, he just forgot to change the settings on the dvd player itself. YES, the dvd player settings MUST also be set to have a subwoofer output, as well as changing the settings on the receiver. i myself have not tried this product but do own many aiwa products that have dependably supported my listening needs. try it out for yourself and see if it really is a defect. chances are, that guy just overlooked one of the things he had to do to get the system working.

Somewhat disappointed

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Dec 5, 2001
First thing first, how do i get the subwoofer to work properly. We had it working then, it stopped. I was a little disappointed with the sound & the instructions in the manual. Thank God for tech. support. Eventually, i'll add better speakers later to satisfy my need for bass & good sound.
