buy for and with my JVC 56 '' hd-ilum -lrb- jvc hd-56g886 ... see my review -rrb- rear projector big screen tv , I be look for space saving speaker to fit into a crowded family room ; and not have a large budget - rule out buy a component system that I think be necessary to give I the sound clarity I want . the front speaker on pole fit very nicely behind my JVC HD 56 '' tv set . the center channel speaker sit quite nicely on top of the tv screen - give great clarity on speak word - often muffle on other system . the rear speaker on pole -lrb- all speaker be detachable and can be wall mount -rrb- with diffuser top for room sound deflection work well with the informal decor in we family room . the speaker color and stand be the same silver\/plastic color as the tv set . JVC have a `` Smart Setup '' feature - as simple as clap you hand in the viewing\/listening area use a build in computer to determine sound delay - front to back and side to side between channel ... WOW !!!!! the 5 dvd player handle all kind of input - include CD , mp3 and dvd 's from most source . the 5 disk changer be difficult to load if put underneath the giant screen tv . it would be best place next to the set in a cabinet or shelf at about the 4-5 foot level for easier handling of the 5 dvd tray of the unit . the remote allow all function to be handle . my only disappointment -lrb- not surprisingly -rrb- be the 6 '' sub-woofer . the bass be good - not earthshaking - have not have any flatten out of low note ... the JVC thc6 have overall exceed my expectation from a `` box '' all in one home Theater unit . Works well for the price . have all the feature you need . speaker fit into most room with either pole or wall mount . good center channel sound for movie or tv dialog . only place to go up from here be a component unit for about twice the price .
