 A pleasure to set up and great sound! Aug 06, 2008
By L. Haney
"Book lover and botany student"
I purchased this product to connect to a Samsung hdtv and a Samsung upconverting dvd player. The remote controls all three (because they are all samsung) and when I put my first dvd in it turned on the tv and chose the correct reciever setting without even pushing a button. I was pretty impressed by this.
Even though this is the first surround sound system that I have owned, it only took me about 45 minutes to set up. It still needs some tweaking, and I still need to hide the rear speaker cords, but I am very pleased with it so far. Nice design, looks sleek and elegant and the sound is awesome. I was glad that this system uses standard speaker wire (not plugs) so you can easily purchase more wire and run it around the edges of the room.
The size was larger than I expected on both the reciever itself and the sub so people with small rooms may want to double check the size specifications.
I would recomend this reciever to anyone because of the simple setup and great sound right out of the box. It also has the capability to be adjusted to odd shaped rooms with uneven speaker distances. It can later be expanded to 7.1 surround (blu-ray) with the purchase of another set of speakers.

 A quality system Apr 29, 2008
By F. Kelley
"B. Real"
I initially belileved that the subwoofer had stop working, but after further research on the web I discovered that if you change the settings of the front speakers from smalll to large, the subwoofer becomes inoperable. Meaning, the sub off or on option will not work, and the sub will not be used to distribute sound. I change the setting back to small and the system works awesome now. Unfortunately, when I contacted Smasung customer support, they had know recommendation to remedy this problem other than sending it in for repairs. My advice for anyone wanting to adjust the volume on the front speakers would be to use the level option.

Outstanding Jan 04, 2008
By MDF
Pros: Sound, Appearance, HDMI in/out
Cons: None that I am aware of
This is a surprisingly good system. I was lucky enough to find the system for $450 at the local Best Buy (the price reduced because the box had been opened). Compared to other systems, I would say it's still quite a bargain retail, rivaling systems more than two or three times the price.
I was truly impressed with the system after setting it up. It gives very nice blending of high, mid and low frequencies for a crisp, yet rich sound. It's great for movies and I love just listening to music on it, not to mention that its appearance is clean and unobtrusive.
I have a separate DVD player, so do not mind that one is not integrated into the system. After peeking through the air vents it's not clear to me why Samsung made the unit so tall, the components would apparently fit in an enclosure half the height, but that's really my only complaint, if you can call it one.
I am extremely happy and recommend the system highly.

Great Receiver Aug 07, 2008
By Jefferson Nunn
I bought it to connect my PS3 and DirecTV H20 receiver together with my Samsung TV. I am really happy with the Samsung TV so I figured the Reciever would be a similar experience. I was upgrading from a Yamaha system I bought at Best Buy.
The sound clarity is actually really good and the controls and setup is easy to do. The fact that Amazon offered free shipping while everyone else wanted $80+ for that was awesome.
The first one I got from Amazon had an issue with the HDMI not working. I filled out the online form on Amazon to have it replaced and they shipped out a replacement ASAP and had a tag printed for the return.
Buying from Amazon...It's way better than Best Buy. I think I'll buy all my electronics from here now on :-)
