Editorial Review :
This deluxe audio theater system turns your home into a virtual theater. In addition to the incredible surround sound of your current DVD player, this system also superbly enhances your other audio sources, such as a CD player, computer, VCR, or a cassette deck. The only thing you need to add is your own TV or other devices.

Definitely not for the audiophile, but hey, for the price...
This is about the most basic surround sound system I have ever seen- not a single bell or whistle. It is easy to set up because there are no options. However, it does produce surround sound, and it is noticeable (some simulated surround sound systems barely have any sound coming from the rear). The system set up is dummy-proof, and while the sound quality is not crystal clear (occasionally the sound is muffled, and the midrange will crack if it hits its relatively low high end),it usually does its job, and for the price, I am surprised how well the system works. I have had this system for three or four years, and it is still running smoothly. The one complaint: Even a cheap system can have a basic display. The only way to tell which component is on is to listen for the right sound or count the blinks from the power light as you hit the component button.

Great stuff for the price
While I'm sure there might be a more amazing plug-in-play surround sound system out there now, this was a great product for the price a year ago - and it still works like a charm for me! I think it has fantastic sound, although I do agree it might be lacking somewhere. I'm by no means an audio expert, but it sounds good enough for my ears.
I love that the remote can change the volume of the subwoofer, rear, center, and front speakers. This is exceptionally important for me because I don't like a lot of bass, but love to hear vocals and higher pitched sounds better. With many products it's very tricky to change the speakers loudness individually.
Overall, like I said, I've had this for a year and love it. For many electronics that's sadly impressive. It's extremely simple to setup and I love just being able to plug in one jack to my laptop and have theatre quality surround sound. Can't comment on newer surround sound products, but I can highly recommend this one!
