from Best Buy Summary: My first impression of the sound quality was very good, that is, for a small room. I improved the sound by replacing the Klipsh speakers with CSW satellites. Picture quality is also decent. Neither audio or video quality is impressive, but I would recommend it to someone in an apartment, dormatory, other small viewing area, or just someone on a budget. I look forward to replacing it asap. The subwoofer's response is muffled and attacks are loose. *I have experienced a 'fluttering' buzz in the right rear speaker that can be noticed during soft periods during dvd playback. Samsung has attempted to repair the issue twice, and now the unit is in for a third (3) attempt. Samsung customer support is very polite, yet very disorganized. I have received conflicting information and directions from their service department, not to mention their inability to fix my problem.
The remote control is awkward, and the onscreen menus are awkward. Set-up and operation is the most frustrating part of this product. This is a consumer/casual listener targeted product, yet the set-up and operation is the most difficult AV product I've used.
Consider this product if you want a small all-in-one home theater and you have limited space and/or budget. But, consider other brands. Strengths: Size, appearance. Weaknesses: Remote control, on-screen menus, subwoofer, satellites aren't wall-mountable, Repair Service Similar Products Used: BOSE lifestyle
