As I said in the title "THIS SYSTEM ROCKS".If your room is small go with this Sony. I looked at the Kenwood, to big for my room. Now you can watch your dvds to there fullest (audio wise)when you insert a dvd that has the DTS AUDIO FUNCTION you feel like your right in the movie. Before you start watching a movie and you have this system check out the audio menu and see if there is a DTS AUDIO TRACK and if there is USE IT DON'T ABUSE. I would have like to give it 10stars but Amazon went only up to five

If your goal is to get good sound for your home theater without dropping big bucks, take a look at this unit. Granted, a subwoofer of this size with only 50 watts cannot compete with a big system, but if you want deep bass, be prepared to pay a whole lot more. It sounded to me like this system put out a decent level and taughtness of bass down to about 50 Hz and could play fairly dynamically up to 90 or 95 dB. Above that level, the system sounded compressed and the smoothness of the midrange went away. But at a reasonable volume level, the mids are well reproduced and smooth. The controls have adequate sensitivity to allow you to set equalization and surround effects to match your taste for a wide variety of movie soundtracks. This is a bargain.
