Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $599.00 from best buy

Summary:
this system is ok for beginners, but the power you get and the brand name is a steal. Ive heard a lot better, but if you by the good speaker cables and set it up properly it will sound great.Sub is good for movies and dvds but lacks on music. It may go pretty deep but it wont go that loud. I have the sony 27 inch trinitron tv with s video switches, and when i play a dvd the sound and picture quality is amazing.

Strengths:
good sound, price and the dvd player

Weaknesses:
speaker wires suck, sub is a little on the weak side

Similar Products Used:
heard rca, panasonic,bose

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $699.00 from Best Buy

Summary:
Problem is, automatically skips the DVD and continues change is the contrast automatically. I heard from my friends (after buying the product) that they also had same problem and they exchanged the system several times. Question is my the hell Sony is still selling this product.

Strengths:
Stylish, Audio is too good

Weaknesses:
Serious problem playing the DVDS

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
