adjust you expectation for this sexy little unit and I think you will be please . my viewing room be 15 ' x 15 ' and only have half-wall at the back . the system sound very good when we move the couch to within ten foot . the overall quality of sound vary wildly with the source : full hd video typically have very full sound while non-hd cable signal sound compress . play music through the system work very nicely -- if you sit close enough . outside that sweet spot the limitation of those little horn and sub will show through . plug it all in be very easy . I have try mess with the advanced setting a little , but the interface be not very easy to use -lrb- via remote only -rrb- . nevertheless , by just push the sub up in the mix I get a sound that work well in most situation . for this price I be very pleased . I could move my old 5.1 system in for the whole-meal-deal , but I can not really turn it up to good volume with other in the house !
