Strength:
DTS Decoding. Decent, but cheap, speakers. Decent power. Great for low-budget, small Home Theater room.
Weakness:
Remote is way too small and only controls other Kenwood products. With included passive sub, at higher volumes the sudden bas hits would send amp into protect mode. Good system for the money. The speakers: Decent for a start, but you will want to replace them eventually, at least the sub, center, and fronts. So far I have replaced the centr and added a powered sub, and the system really sounds great. Of course, there are better sounding systems, but not for this money. One probelm: With included passive sub, at higher volumes the sudden bas hits would send amp into protect mode. Replaced sub with a powered sub, and problem went away. I chose this system becuse we were on a tight budget, and this one provided DTS decoding. I would reccomend this (or the current model like it) to anyone who wants a second system, or a decent system on a budget. |

Strength:
cheap
Weakness:
no bass, hums This unit stinks; just after warranty ran out it began to hum like a champ. The hum is audible even at low volume. Didn't have bass from day one...cheap mini system from walmart has far superior sound. Similar Products Used: sony components w/ infinity surround; Panasonic SCHT80 |
