It is working nicely. We have DVD recorder in another room. We record all our favorite progams there and play them on this system. The only drawback is trying to connect multiple devices to the speaker system.

I first bought a crappy system from Radio Shack. After taking that one back I was on the net looking for this one. I found it at Wally World for $189.00 it had rave reviews so I ordered it. It arrived packaged nicely with all the parts in the box. After a easy installation the book goes step by step. I was totally impressed by the sound and features. I’m not a over the top sound person, but I do like the things I pay for to meet my expectations. The sound is awesome. They give you a good bang for the buck with this one. I set it up like the book advised and I can hear wind, rain and cheers. Now here is the best part it plays my iphone 3g, remote works with it and it sounds great, it even charges it. It does put it in airplane mode so you wont be able to accept any calls, but that wasn’t a problem for me. So if you looking for a good system for a low price this is it. I have this set up to a 50′ plasam Sanyo (which is also great for the price $598 black friday). Also I don’t think Wally sells this anymore haven’t been able to locate it since i ordered it. Good luck

This is a great surround system for the price. Bought it for my parents for Christmas (early christmas for us) and they love it. All of the features worked well if not above expectations. Don’t know about the upconverting as they don’t have a 1080p tv. The sound is awsome. There downstairs is about 14′wide by 30′ long and it fills the space with great sound. Watched the new Star Trek on it and the bass will rumble you, the speaking parts come trough clear from the center speaker. If you want a system that does everything except play blue ray this is it. The speaker cords for the surround sound are very long. Ran it at least 20′ with more to spare. Great little system. Been working for about 1 month.

This system has definitely made my living room more like a theater. I love it. My only problem was in hooking up the speakers. The speaker plugs are specially shaped for the back of the receiver. My house was already wired for surround sound under the floor, so I had to splice the existing wires to the new wires in order to use the plugs…the wires with this system are VERY thin, which made it a bit of a pain.
This problem won’t effect everyone. Five stars otherwise. The system is virtually idiot proof to put together, sounds great, and is wonderfully low profile. If I hadn’t had to deal with splicing, I would have been watching a loud flick within 45 mins, including mounting the rear speakers.

I guess for the money you pay it is okay. Sound isn’t audiophile quality but by the time you’re immersed in whatever movie you’re watching the sound is passable. Has a really bad habit of getting the sound out of sync with the TV program you’re watching. I haven’t,however,noticed it doing this with a movie.Possibly because I always use the built-in DVD player. To fix it you have to shut down both and restart.This is VERY disconserting.Over all,if I had to do it over,I would save my money and go with a different system/method of building a home theater sound system.I would buy what I know for sure is a quality receiver/monitor/amplifier and,seperately,a high quality set of speakers.For VERY casual viewing I guess it is okay. On a scale of one to ten I would give it a 6.5.
