Not Much Contribution from Rear Speakers July 25, 2008
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
Sound is GREAT through Audio-Tech headphones, but the rear surround speakers produce little sound, almost imperceptible in most situations, and there is NO CONTROL to bring up or balance the sound to my ear from the different speakers like my old Panasonic had. I should have spent the $50 more and upgraded to the next model and just had the surround wireless, or saved money and stayed with the wired rear speakers from the lessor model. It costs more to make this system wireless if just using the one set of speakers in one room. Programs with my new Panasonic plasma just fine. Goood features: 5-disk tray, HDMI ready, automatically lowers the sound level to low on shutdown so you are not blasted out of the room when next turning it on.
The little HTIB that could... July 27, 2008

Installed this yesterday w/a new Sony Bravia 46" LCD TV.
The TV and the receiver interface pretty well...out of the box they can "talk" to each other if connected via HDMI and optical out from the TV to the receiver, and the changing inputs on the TV will make appropriate changes to the audio output selected. There is an option to tell the Sony TV remote which AV/Receiver you are using, so that it can do double duty. So now I can turn both the TV and the reciever on/off with one button, choose a video input and the audio is switched automatically, etc. (The Sony feature is called something like "HDMI Sync.")
The sound of the unit is much better than I expected. It's not going to make an audiophile give up their high-end systems, and can't match the setup in my main room, but it is going to be more than adequate for most listeners and for folks looking for a compact system. It has enough power to fill a big room nicely with a big sound, and the subwoofer is powerful enough to rattle your walls and windows. :)
It comes with a nice feature...a microphone you attach to the receiver and then set in the middle of the room. The receiver then automatically tunes the speaker levels to the appropriate level. I haven't done that yet (have to get the rear surrounds hung), but if it works OK it will be a nice feature.
The iPod dock included only supports audio...a big disappointment. Why they stopped at audio is hard to understand...iPod video is at least as important now as audio playback. Oh well...
The included wireless speaker seems like a solution in search of a problem we don't have. Allows listening to the audio playing on the receiver in different rooms (or outside).
We're really not sure if we'll use it or not...we have radios pretty much anywhere we want to listen to the radio, and don't see any need to hear the TV from another room where I can't see the TV.
This is an all-plastic speaker set...you won't find any fabric or wood here, but they still look nice and don't feel cheap.
Overall I'd say this is a good system with a nice sound. Paired w/a Sony Bravia TV it makes a nice, easy to use combination.
