this Sony home theater system produce a pretty good sound for the dvd I watch . it be amazingly easy to set up and overall , I be please with it . the only downside for I be that it be suppose to provide the same surround sound to tv broadcast , too . what they do not tell you , however , be that it only do so if you have cable or satellite service . the regular , `` over-the-air '' channel will not be transmit in the surround mode . if it do , I would be totally happy with the system .
