Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $180.00 from ebay

Summary:
Was looking for a home theater system but wanted a fairly good one without spending a lot of money (aren't we all). I decided to look on ebay and see if there were any bargains on new or used equipment. I quickly found the Philips FR965 Home Theatre system. I already had a Philips Real Flat Tv so I thought it would be a good match. Well, yes, it absolutely was a good match. Easy to set-up, great, great sound and options to keep you busy. Excellent remote. There are 5 speakers plus a woofer. All of them excellent and for the size room, maybe even a little overkill. Exellent product

Strengths:
Ease of Use Remote Control is excellent and easy to learn Sound quality rivals the best systems but does have some limits

Weaknesses:
None
