I purchase this Sony htib to replace my 4 year old JVC htib -lrb- dvd -rrb- . I be look to upgrade to a Blu-Ray player and rear wireless speaker . I only have the system a week , but here be my initial thought . the packaging be very good , which I usually do not comment on . the wire be color code , so speaker setup be easy . I also love how the front speaker hide the wire . I just wish you could upgrade to standard speaker wire . I cant comment on the remote , since I have use a Logitech remote . Blu-Ray quality be awesome ; such a difference from dvd . some of the pro 's : `` Wireless '' speaker work very nicely , 2 hdmus input , ethernet connection -lrb- Netflix , you Tube , etc access -rrb- and the Sony menu\/options . con : slow to boot up . but , that can be adjust for more power consumption . the biggest negative be , even at 1000w it seem a little light on power . I contemplate return the unit . but , the lack of sound be mostly when watch tv . it seem when watch Blu-Ray , play video game , and listen to music its plenty of sound for I . another reason I do not return it be for the wireless speaker . the wireless speaker out there be expensive and have mix review . I would not feel confident they would work . plus , we all know purchase a component system would cost at least double of a htib .
