this be a great purchase to complete my home entertainment center . I have this hook up to a 37 '' Vizio HDTV , my xbox 360 , Samsung bluray player , and my Comcast HD cable box . installation be very simple , plug and play . the set up take less than 5 minute to calibrate each speaker . I find this for 180 $ with free amazon prime shipping on amazon so I jump on it . one flaw , be I just wish it have more input . not too much of a hassle to change around a few wire before enjoy a few hour or more of entertainment . this system can get pretty loud if you want it to . you can manually increase the db of each speaker if you want . I increase the sub-woofer a few decibel higher than each other speaker because I tend to like more bass with my listening . I have not use it much for dvd playback because I own other item that do this . ipod playback via usb be integrate nicely . well build , feel well make . each speaker be fairly light , which make wall mount more appealing . this be the best system for the most bang for you buck , as a entry level system it be worth take a look at .
