System broke after a month and a half of use. Best Buy would not take it back and you can't get ahold of the manufacturer if your life depended on it. Don't believe me? Search google for this company.

We bought this home theater system 3 weeks ago. The user's manual was very hard to follow-pictures but no actual words. We finally got it hooked up, and it worked great for the first day, but then we had problems getting it to play dvds consistently. Sometimes it worked, and sometimes it would get stuck. We would have to unplug it to reset it. Then after using it a total of ten times, it let out a giant pop and smoke. We returned it to the store and got our money back.

I bought this system a year and a half ago and it has started having problems reading audio cds. After watching a dvd stop it and I leave it alone for about 25-30 min. tops when i am in the other room it starts playing again with out haveing me do anything to it. One last thing I experianced some background noise while playing dvds so i changed to a better quallity cable and the background noise improved but did not go away completely.

I purchased this system from Amazon in May.... Arrived in one week via UPS...in great condition.The system was expertly packaged to protect contents. It was easy to assemble and connect it up and was playing dvd's and cd's within an hour!
The best part of this system is the dvd/tuner/receiver... It has plenty of power and features that will make you smile! It is perfect for a small-medium sized room.

If there were an area to criticize... it would be the speakers are a little on the light side... they are adequate, but they don't quite make that great punch that some other speakers have.

It has a small full-function remote that works well once you get used to it... In a nutshell - I think this is the best home theatre sound system for under [$$$] on the market.

This is a great entry level system for someone who wants true home theater. The receiver is exceptional and the DVD gives you a crisp, clean picture. The center channel and sub-woofer speakers are excellent and fill up any room with great sound.

On the down side the front and real surround speakers aren't much better than ones you get standard with a computer. You will need to upgrade to take advantage of the 400 Watts of power. You will also need to get better speaker wire and the remote isn't very user friendly.

All in all you will be very happy with this purchase.
