I own 2 other Apex dvd player . they be great . this home Theater System be not . the remote enter the number 4 repeatedly when it be just sit on the table . it have go through 4 set of battery in 2 month . the main unit do not recognize command from it 3\/4 of the time . it will not play SVCD disc as it be manual say it will . overall , I would say it be a piece of garbage . I do not know what happen to the good quality for a low price apex use to deliver , but this sure be not it !
