I bought this system expecting mediocre performance, given the price. On my other TV, I have a high-end Yamaha receiver with a Bose Acoustimass speaker system. I honestly believe the sound is just as good with this system, and it costs about $1500 less.

What I did give up are features and controls, and really high volume. You can make minor adjustments that I believe are fully sufficient, but not the wide array of sound settings and tweaks that are available for more money. Also, it provides plenty of good volume and sound quality for a home theater application, but the volume may be limited if you are looking to also use the system as an audio system to play when not watching a TV (music for a party, outdoor connections). That is not to say it won’t get very loud with good quality, just that is where a high-end system with more power can surpass this.

Bottom line, if you want a really good surround sound experience, I’m very pleased with this system. If you want all of the capabilities of a high-end expensive system…then don’t look for it in a $230 HTIB. Definitely recommend this product.

So I just set up the system and hooked it up to my 42″ Panasonic Plasma (via HDMI and Optical connections, which I recommend) and was blown away by the sound, crisp highs and deep lows. The smart setup which includes a microphone was easy and walked you thru everything you need to do. It works great with the “VIERA Link” all I have to do is turn the TV on or off and it comes on or shuts down with it. Havent tried the Ipod connection, will do that tonight… I connected my iphone and it’s pretty cool that you can watch videos you have on it thru the connection on your TV.
