I'm not an A / V expert, nor have I ever claimed to be. I believe, however, have years of experience in dealing with consumer electronics and the joy of learning and using the latest technologies.
This was my first Blu-Ray or home theater system. For the price, I do not think you could probably better established. Again, I am no expert, but the system sounds good and works well. I had pretty low expectations, I did not expect the quality of surround sound or just rich, they are very satisfiedthis purchase. After weeks of research and flip-flops of other products could not be happier. This product in its category (low-end Blu-ray HTIB) is a solid 5 stars. I think the world of Blu-ray HTIB products, is closer to 4 stars, but this is still the element with the current product cost multipliers That many more.
The two biggest advantages and disadvantages of this system are the same article: Set. Physics was set up a breeze. A qualified (or untrained,like me) could be monkeys. Everything is color-coded and very intuitive. Get a good optical audio cable to your TV / satellite / cable TV / game console sound can feed back into the system. The body part I do not like the user menu was. I am very comfortable with electronics. I rarely read the manuals. The menus are intuitive, so it's not even funny. Out of the box and set up the system works well. To make it work a lot, took some effort.A hair in the soup is huge for me that the default setting for the TV HDMI 480p, 1080p NOT. It took some serious digging in the manual and change the menu. There are also three separate places, to change the sound. One of them is a simple push of a button on the remote control is one of their two fairly unresolved buttons on the remote and the other is a menu item on the front panel display requires only that the manual says bad as you access. However, even if you are comfortable with theseTypes of products for a longer learning curve than usual will be prepared.
On the positive side, however, this same system. The image quickly, without problems mosiacs, artifacts, etc. The sound is deep and rich. I, in my humble opinion, I believe that sound as good as everyone else, the most expensive I've heard. Again, I am no expert, but my ears love it. It interfaces well with my TV. The remote is easy to program and two (although other brands) work well together. MyRegular DVDs are upconverted to an acceptable level. As regards the overall power speaker, I am more than happy. I am the Lord of the Rings and during the action scenes aloud, we got some serious signs that I make sure my neighbors do not appreciate. It was like we really are in a cinema.
Pros:
Easy to set up physical
Great sound
Powerful sound
Fast loading times
Quality
Price
Easy calibration
Cons:
Poor menu
Short(Not acceptable) the length of speaker cable
Outside the window settings
Unable to connect to the Internet to services like Netflix
All in all, I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a home theater audio system. Be aware that the menus are a pain. I think for the money, you can not do better. I think even for more money, much more, it would be hard pressed. I am more than satisfied with the whole of creation. Now that I am, to use the menus, is tolerable, even ifstill rather confused, as they did.
