Fall in love with music and movies again
This is a super clear / crisp / warm sounding system. Just perfection. Sure it may lack the deeper warmth of high end all vacuum tube system with specialized speakers the size of your largest pet, but this is just wonderful.
Easy to setup. Enough options for customization. You can hook it up to virtually anything. I've hooked up my computer sound through my video cards HDMI port and it's excellent.
Follow up after few days using the system:
Pros:
Great for movies - has all the newest audio formats for blu ray playback. You really get a great surround sound effect without having to tweak much or missing out on voice or other issue you may have run into before when using component systems.
The vacuum tubes - do provide a warmer sound.
Subwoofer - is great even though it's half the size and weight as my previous one. It's excellent.
Subwoofer strentgh can be adjusted via remote on the fly .. yay.. great...
Expensive, sound is great, mounting options are tough.
Bottom line: I really love the sound, and that's the idea, right?
I opened the box and began to set everything up. The first thing I encountered was the remote didn't work. I tried all sorts of batteries in it to no avail. Luckily I have a Harmony remote, so I was able to add the device to that (actually a previous model because this one was so new). Later, I called support and they FedExed me a new remote with little effort on my part.
Some things to note:
- The rear speakers do have to plug into a receiver - they aren't standalone. In the product image, it's that skinny box to the right of the actual blu-ray player. This wasn't that big of a deal for me and actually worked out well in my basement with drop ceilings, but I imagine that could break someone's heart if they weren't aware of it.
- The rear speakers have weird mounting holes. So, I purchased some mounting arms from Best Buy that have all sorts of different ways to connect to the...
Sound is Amazing!
I have had this system for a few days and I can tell you it is great IMHO. The setup was painless, a quick sound test told me that I did everything correctly. I had an LG HTiB before and the difference in sound is like night and day. At times, when a cell phone vibrates in the movie, I thought it was my phone in the room :) I own Galaxy phone and tablet and the "Screen Mirror" function is awesome. I can view everything I am doing on the TV. Tiny photos are now Huge on a 55 inch screen. The interface is not as bad as some people complain. ARC is great if you have an ARC (audio return channel) compatible TV - saves you from having an extra optical cable. I know people complained about source switching, but there is a button TV Sound On/Off, that will switch to D.In so that you can get TV sound instantly and then press Home to get to DVD/BD.
Overall, I am extremely pleased with the system. So far, did not find any major Conns.
On Screen Keyboard is a bit slow (not too much but...
