I just bought this system sans the DVD player (I already had a Sony 5-disc changer). I also had a JBL PB12 subwoofer that I added to this system in addition to the subwoofer that came with the system. In short, I think this is a great value for the money! The channel separation is clear, the speakers offer a crisp sound (though slightly tinny w/o my 12-inch sub). The receiver offers a myriad of customizable options that will allow you to tailor the sound to the size and dynamics of your room. I found the setup to be easier than anticipated as well. It took about 2 hours to unhook my previous system and get this one up and running. Sure, there are better (and more expensive) systems out there, but for the price I don't think you'll find anything better. I'm very pleased with mine.
