I have been using this system for about a year now and have been very pleased. Every once in awhile I still find myself looking in the direction of the speakers thinking a sound was coming from the living and not the speakers.

Having AT&T U-Verse I was concerned that the wireless speakers would interfere with the U-Verse system but this was not the case. Worked perfectly on the default setting. It is very easy to setup for your cable system as well. This system does include a FM antenna wire that works great for me even stuffed behind the receiver. The system does include a microphone that helps automatically calibrate your system based on the size of the room and the seating position. When I moved from an apartment into a new home I forgot to re-calibrate for several months, but once I did there was a clear sound improvement.

Shopped around a lot before purchasing this and couldn't find another system comparable in price or quality with wireless rear It is recommended that I buy Knight (+ BD is - the site), Ray [Blu-ray to the first - the speaker, you own the first DVD], it (like me), the difference is amazing, the film seems to be different.

I rent my house, I'm so hesitant, cut with a real component having home theater system in my room, I go with a stick HTIB. HITB on Blu-ray market is relatively low at the moment, so I shelled out more than I expected in this system. Fortunately, it was worth the money.

These small speakers "bar" (do not know what else could really be called) are incredible. They are smaller than I expected from photos and descriptions, but once set up and configured forRoom (furniture is a bit 'annoying, but the configuration in which all devices in the city is fast and easy) I was blown away. Just listen to all those who believe, the sound is funk, frail-looking wafer-speakers. The subcommittee, although passive, Pound low notes.

The system comes with wall brackets and are small and light enough that I installed the modem this weekend. It comes only with desktop stand - if you want the speakers on the mountainSoil, you must raise a series of charges to buy speakers again, the appropriate level. Given the low height and footprint of the stand-mounted speakers, I WAS the front speakers on the Same Level as the TV room and rear speakers on a table beside my bed.

I was more insecure wireless speakers, but the included S-Air system is working fine. S-AIR unit plugs into a socket and connects wirelessly to the versatile receiver, and backSpeakers plug into the S-Air units, instead of the laptop, so there's no worry about batteries. Surround sound through the unit was fine.

The only downside is that you place the speaker wires in the door speaker. Sony has a good idea, but simply not up to snuff. The wires end in beautiful large gold-plated items into the bottom of the speakers used, and should seek, but the small size of the housing andpoverty speaker wires directly to these ports (where you tend to "push") makes it a bit 'difficult to do correctly. I'm not sure that all cables are correct, or blocking is not up to par, how to "gently tug on the wires out without them - but everyone seemed They Come Easily with minimal effort. Once I tried it and thought that would be good enough, the rest of the installation was simple andSpeakers are working properly.

Also watch out for the tape on the front of the system that the drive door is closed. The mine was easy to forget, until I pressed the open button on the remote control and realized that something was wrong.

I always think that 2000 is still a bit 'on the expensive side, but I do not regret buying this system because I have too much rather than spent, and spent far less and be disappointed sastified.
