"This is a great system however It is really hard to set up the system"
Pros: Tons of features and connections, great system
Cons: Hard to Set up and operate the System. One must read the user manual from start to end before even touching the System
Summary: It took me almost 3 weeks of research and I ended up with this system. I like the fact that it included both a DVD changer and the speakers and the receiver has 2 HDMI input and I HDMI out. The system looks good as well; I liked the Blue Light on the volume control and on the DVD player. It matches my LNT-4671 Samsung TV.
First thing I noticed when I unpacked my system was the lack of the cables. The only cables that were included were the colored speaker cables besides that nothing.
I had to order the cables from monoprice.com and had to wait 3 days to them to arrive. When I had the cables I tried to connect the system. Well it didn't go that well. It took me around 4h to make the system work. At one point I was thinking of returning the system.
To make the long story short when the system was connected everything was ok. It delivers the result that you are looking for.
One other thing is that I don't like about this system is the volume control, from 0-30 you get almost no sound at all, beyond 30 the system wakes up and the fun begins.
The set-up menu for the receiver is not shown on TV-set when you connect it using HDMI cable. You must have another cable "RCA" to connect the TV and the receiver.
The receiver gets hot very easily so do not place the DVD player on top of it.
The speakers sound great when the volume is high and there is no need to replace the speaker cables.
Bottom line is this is a great system if you can manage to set up the system and you don't mind the wire around your house.
