Great quality, great price, easy set-up
Pros: Great sound, lots of audio options, versatile remote.
Cons: Comes with the basic, cheap skinny wire to connect the speakers - and you need a lot of wire.
I also like the programmable remote. With a little bit of work, I can run everything off the single receiver remote now. One small exception - haven't figured out how to record on my cable box/hard drive (TiVo) combination unit. Everything else works like a dream.

BEST ever in HTIB.
Pros: Fantastic performance. No need for seperates !
Cons: Big speakers
With dual 5" cone and 1" tweeter in front and centre speakers the sound is crisp and clear. Very good surround from all other speakers. Receiver has very generous Audio/Vedio connections. 230 Watt power of the sub and power of the whole system in general is excellent. With 50% of the max volume it shakes my living room.
I could not be more happier. Highy recommended.
