Really good sound good for the price...
Hey, it's got a powered/active subwoofer, and some stylish looking speakers. The only trick is that the controls for the subwoofer are not external. They are set thru the DVD menu, but the settings remain constant, whether watching TV, a DVD or the radio. Once I was able to get the bass turned up, the sound was very impressive, especially considering the price. I get a lot of compliments on the look of the speakers, and the subwoofer is a really good size.
One caveat: DO NOT purchase a refurbished Philips item of any kind. The WORST customer service on the planet is thru Philips for their refurbished items, although their customer service for new items is comparable to other companies.
I don't have a super expensive system, but it sure looks & sounds like it these days.
