"Love IT!!!!" 2008-08-29
By J. C. Graboff (NY USA)
This system is fantastic and I feel like a lot of people opt for the HTD-DW790 because its cheaper and basically has the same features. Now anyone that does a little research will find why the price is so diffrent. First of all the picture on Amazon mis represents the system, the speakers are actually all the same size as the speaker, i don't know why it is like this, so keep in mind every speaker is bigger on the DW795. Now the other BIG diffrence is the audio cables ARE NOT BUILT IN. This means if you need a longer cable there is no need to splice, this is great for people like me that move this system to diffrent rooms with me depending on if i get new tech.

CONS- the cons with this system are obvious lack of inputs on the back. it really stinks to only have three. I wish there were five or more. It dosn't effect me at the moment because i use a AV switcher but if i didn't have one then i'm sure the lack of inputs would be fustrating.

did i mention the cool remote and crystal clear sound. Granted this system dosn't sound as good as my other system which cost me 1000 but this system deffinatly does the job for movies, oo yeah i also upgraded the Sub, just used the one from the more expensive sound system it sounds awesome. that means that this system is really versitile so if you need to upgrade any part, speakers or sub the Reciever unit compensates really great. just beware with this much power you could definatly blow a circuit.

"Better Than Expected" 2007-10-21
By T. C. MCCLIMANS (Caldwell, Idaho United States)
I originally bought an RCA 5.1 Home Theater setup for our new 50" Samsung LED DLP but was disappointed with the weak inputs, low max volume and hardwired speakers with cables that were too short.

Did more research and kept coming back to the Sony HTDDW795 for our needs.

Pros: Excellent sound for such small speakers (Dolby PL, PLII, DTS, etc supported), surprisingly good subwoofer, speakers are *not* hardwired, included wires are surprisingly long & useful, easy installation, one-touch basic audio setup selections.

Cons: Advanced menus more difficult to access/use, auto-calibrate has repeatedly refused to recognize/calibrate the rear surround sound speakers, no 3.1 setup (L, R, C, SW) if you don't want full 5.1 Surround Sound.

Aside from the minor (for me) cons, I'm very happy with this system and consider it an excellent value for the price.

Product Description

If you want an idea of where Onkyo's home theater packages are heading, the HT-S5200 is well worth checking out. Like previous Onkyo 7.1-channel receiver/speaker packages, the HT-S5200 delivers reassuringly hefty amounts of power and all-round performance. And in line with other recent offerings, it's also perfectly suited for high-definition entertainment in the home: 1080p video takes stage from sources such as Blu-ray Disc, DVD, HD broadcasting, and gaming. The emphasis is still on Onkyo's audio prowess, so the HT-S5200 is equipped with three groundbreaking Audyssey technologies that will give you the edge in terms of surround sound. It also features some exciting innovations from Onkyo - a dedicated port that connects the iPod via the dock for the iPod and DSP modes specifically designed for gaming.

"Problem with Amazon and S5200" 2009-07-23
By Daniel Phillips (st louis)

I am really upset with Amazon and my Onkyo S5200 purchase.

The Amazon description mentions hdmi with this system.

Yet Amazon never mention the fact that this Onkyo system

Does NOT use the HDMI for Audio, only allows Video with HDMI run throught.

In other words the HDMI is useless for Audio .

Product Description

The new system is the JVC Sophisti DD-3, comprised of a main unit and speakers. At the heart of the system is a network media player that serves as the nerve of the home entertainment set up. Like most system main units, this one includes a DVD player, an AM/FM tuner and inputs for connecting other components. But what sets it apart from others is an Ethernet connection that allows it to connect to a personal computer, allowing retrieval of music files, movies, digital images and other digital files stored on the computer. JVCs Sophisti system can connect directly to a single computer, or to multiple computers through a wired or wireless router, providing access to files stored on any connected computer. Once set up, audio is routed through the systems speakers while video and still images are displayed on a connected television.
In addition to playback of digital files stored on a computer, the JVC DD-3 also offers USB Host, allowing a wide range of digital devices to be connected directly to the system, including flash audio players, USB drives, digital cameras and card readers. Connect a digital camera through USB Host and the photos can be displayed on the television. Or connect a music player for playback through the Sophistis speakers.

The Sophistis main unit also includes built-in decoding of Dolby Digital, DTS and Dolby Pro Logic II soundtracks. An HDMI interface ensures that the best possible signal is sent to the connected television. Operation of all functions is convenient and easy using the Sophisti remote control and user-friendly on-screen interface. Total system power is 220 watts.

The DD-3s speaker system includes a powered subwoofer plus left, right and channel speakers that employ JVCs patented Direct Drive technology, which provides an exceptionally wide soundfield so every seat is a good one.

"Works well for me." 2008-11-23
By mscsmyrpln (Houston, TX)
Like all powerline products, how well it works depends on the wiring in your house. I have both boxes (transmit and receive) on the same circuit, going from the front of my living room to the projector in the back. Picture quality is great and looks the same as with a long HDMI cable. I have measured it pushing nearly 50 Mbps of Blu-ray data with no trouble.

I use a projector, so I cannot speak to how well it passes audio through. I have also not tried the IR pass-through.

There are a couple of downsides. The boxes run pretty hot, even staying warm when on but not in use. Each box has its own power switch. I have mounted the boxes in locations not convenient for turning on and off (switch only, no IR) and it bugs me that the standby state runs warm, sucking down electricity 24/7. Also, AR/Audiovox customer service is lacking, as they were no help with seeking stand screws that were supposed to be included, but were left out of the box. Their response: "Our apologies but we don't carry parts as we only do basic troubleshooting and in-warranty exchanges for the whole unit. But you can visit our major dealers that carry our line of products....and check if they have the part you're looking for. Also check other electronic shops/stores within your area that carry suitable replacement parts that may fit your unit."

"TERRIBLE PRODUCT" 2008-11-13
By S. Largent (Houston, TX)
This product is terrible AND recvs negative stars. It has very low color contrast, choppy video and sound. I honestly do not understand how a company like Acoustic Research could even come to market with such a product. AMAZON should remove it immediately from the products sold. RETURNED IMMEDIATELY.

"totally frustrated" 2009-10-10
By C. Scales
Even though it took a few hours to set up properly I was quite happy with it for about 6 months, it then started acting up and loosing functions to the point I had to call tech service several times and was spending hours trying to fix it. I also had problems with the charger not making contact with the remote resulting in having to pamper the remote in the cradle, bleeding the battery down or making the remote completely re-set it self. I finally became so frustrated that I gave up and stopped using it. Not a happy customer!

"Clunky monster remote" 2009-04-22
By D. Stearns (New Orleans, LA)
After 3 days to set up and a couple calls to tech number, the remote still doesn't duplicate all the functions. Maybe it doesn't work with high end equipment, properly. Software for set-up is outdated and slow.

"Does what it's supposed to once you get over the hassle of programing and synch." 2009-02-11
By Ivo (Rochester, NY)
The remote is what you would expect. The set up process for me was more difficult than I expected, I had an issue with getting the remote to synch with the omnilink. After an hour of playing around with the non-user friendly, slow software, I gave up. There are no manuals or particular instructions/guide provided on the website or with the remote. Next day I called the folks at Monster and after a good wait, I was plesantly surprise with the service and the attention. They were great, walked me through the confusing process of linking the remote with the omnilink throug the lights control portion of the software (I'm not using it for lights, but audio/video components I store in a closet). Everything was operational within 15 minute of the call. They asked me to call again if I wanted more help personalizing the button functions to fit my needs. Stated that they expect to service the product in person and that's why they don't put out extensive instructions anywhere. That seemed a little funny, but my problems are resolved. Happy over all with the purchase despite the price tag.

"terrible product" 2008-11-10
By Steven E. Taylor
It's such a great idea, but it simply doesn't work as an RF device. It will work as IR device, but is much too expensive as a universal remote. I was very disappointed because I had high hopes and monster is well known company. It just won't work in cabinets and through walls as advertised. The software is even worse. There are no instructions and the manuals will not open up on-line and support is available only 8-5 Monday thru Friday, so when does a working person call? Oh well, a $300.00 dollar lesson.

By W. Gary Bunce (Raleigh, NC)
I like this remote and it works very well. It looks and feels like a quality piece of equipment. I set it up in about an hour and it worked

without a hitch! Pretty good for the first day of ownership.

The next day, I wanted to tweak some settings. OOPS! That is when frustration set in. The Omnilink quit communicating with the remote control because I pressed the connect button, go figure.

As I tried to find answers in the supplied user guide and in the on-line software it became very apparent that Monster had dropped the ball.

It took about an hour of trial and error to resolve the RF network glitch and the remote works great.

Unlike all of my home theater components the AVL300 does not come with a comprehensive user manual. What you get is a quick start guide that could almost fit inside a CD jewel case. The guide has absolutely zero information about lighting control. Now that is pretty sad considering what you pay for this remote.

If the supplied users guide was more robust and contained advanced information on setting up and troubleshooting a system I would have no problem giving this product a 5 star rating.

I would recommend that if you purchase this remote control and have a problem that you cannot solve with the on-line troubleshooter the first time around, call the support line to avoid prolonged frustration.
