i buy this denon home theater package 30 day ago , i must say i be pleased with the excellent sound and the fairly intuitive ajustment on the reciever . the subwolfer be all you need and be very good . the rest of the speaker be fair at best . i buy a pair of energy cb-5 , put they in front , the front denon go to the suround back position , i have it set up to be a 7.1 use a external amp and replace the center channel speaker with a definitive technology 1000 . i could not be happier with front three now . in time i will buy another pair of energy cb-5 to replace the small denon suround in this 7.1 setup . i can recomend this system as a solid buy @ $ 350.00 or less but any more and i would buy just the reciever and add my own speaker , i recommend energy or definitive technology as these be great choice . also amazon have be great to deal with so a hat off and thank you amazon !
