I buy this system July 2006 and be very pleased with it . I do a lot of research and listen to several similar system from other company before purchase the hk cp15 and have to say that it blow other away . the sound quality , richness , ability to hit high and low even at loud voulume without distortion be excellent . this system would be great for small to medium size room . the subwoffer even though be rate 100Watts , produce booming bass which fill the room and while watch movie , shake the room . I love bass but still I keep the bass knob on the subwoffer at about 45 % , its just that powerful ! the speaker be smaller than the hk hkts8 and the `` 8 '' have a 200watt subwoffer and do not come with a dvd player . my friend have the hkts8 in he house , and listen to the two , there be not a huge difference . if this system be in you price range , it be a must buy . as for set-up i do not find it too complicated , it be time comusing though , but the wait be definately worth it !
