Great Little system for the price

I bought this system about 7 months ago and I love it. The sound is loud and yes the dvd player is small but i never had any problems with this system. I would like to buy one for my bedroom next the price is great and you can purchase a warranty and we did for backup

For what it is, it does the job

Pros: Cheap, does the job, easy to put together. - Cons: Audible hiss and occasional pop sounds when it connects. Not the most powerful system, the remote is not intuitive, and the biggest problem for me was the wire situation. - I've learned I don't like wires, or they need to be extra long. These were... read full review »

TERRIBLE!

OUCH! Bought this, returned it next day. Terrible sound, no bass. Very short speaker wires, means u must splice. Spend an extra $50.00 to get a real system!

Save your money

I bought this item for my husband. And we got it out of the box and hooked up. Well the thing didn't work at all. So we brought it back, and got a different one. Well this one keeps skipping, says disk error, or it will just not work. And If you have anything on top of the dvd player, it will over heat. So please take my advice and save your money. Go buy one of better quality.

No Boom For Your Buck

Ok so I saw this system and immediately pounced on it. It would replace a regular sterio I had hooked up to my TV. It was only 200 watts, so more power PLUS 5 speakers should mean a better experience right? WRONG! I had all the components hooked up, fed through the ceiling and turned on a movie. Yes all the speakers worked, but they barely produced any sound. It was noticible, but not loud enough for a typical movie. My advice, save a bit more and get a 500 or 1000 watt system. These speakers would be equal to an Ipod hooked up to standard headphones and cranked up to full volume - not too loud.... read full review »

This product is a great buy i have a one bedroom apt and this works and sounds great. Easy to hook up to my gaming system with really good sound quality. If you looking for a cheap and easy hookup surround sound you need this in your life.

Drastically improves the overall movie watching experience in your home.  A big improvement over standard TV speakers, but it does lack the ability to play Blu-Ray movies.

remarkable sound system

This system has dynamic sound that all will enjoy when either listening to music, watching tv, or a movie...most people do not know you can always attach them to your pc. Making game play undeniably, and unlike no other youve experienced...i recommend to all :)

you get what you pay for

I bought this dvd system and the dvd player would only play some of my movies. it had a mind of its own. Even renting movies would be a challange not knowing what would play and what would not. Just a waist of money.
