I buy this unit from Amazon about 6 month ago . I must admit , this be a very stylish system with very low profile . the dvd player itself be very very slim . it be wider than normal component though . sound be pretty decent . I have not have any problem with the sound . some folk have complain about the subwoofer be weak . but in my setup it be deliver robust and rich bass . I think this unit be not mean to be in a very big room . in small room sound be great . the remote feel flimsy . I be scared one day may 20 month old daughter be go to break it and my system will be unusable . sometimes the button need to be press hard . and since there be no indicator lead on the remote , you can not tell if the button get press or not . little annoying . it do not play dvd-rw or dvd + rw . I think this day and age all dvd player need to handle the above format .
