I need a flow chart for my components now. O.o by J. Abbott "[lollirotti]" on amazon.com Dec 9, 2010
I would call myself adept at connecting components. I typically do not read instructions. I found myself skimming key points with this unit, especially when it came to setting the features of the unit. I had to pay particularly close attention to the ...

" Purchased for a 22' X 14' living area. Fast shipping. Overall setup was pretty easy to do. A/V receiver nice with all HDMI outputs (I used all HDMI hookups for our Mitsi HDTV & Sony Bluray). Sub Woofer is not "passive" (hooks up with regular speaker ...
 
Good first system by titus_tatius on newegg.com May 15, 2010
This is my first system, so I am very pleased with it and would recommend it. I have put a lot of things in cons but I don't really see them as big things. The main purpose of the unit, the sound is quite good and most of my issues could be easily resolved.

a company that does not stand behind its products by service_ticket_no_4003427805 on amazon.com Dec 27, 2010
We bought Samsung's home theater system. It worked reasonably well for a very short while, before the receiver suffered a debilitating hardware fault. Samsung accepted that the unit was defective and repaired it. Eighteen months later, the issue rematerialized, ...
 
Hardest System to Confugure I've ever seen. Sent in for warranty repair TWICE in first two months by B. Berkowitz on amazon.com Jan 31, 2012
