This is fake surround sound…it sort of works, but if you think it is anything like the real thing, well….think again. It isn’t. If you just can’t get a real surround system set up due to room configuration, this is probably the next best thing. Just don’t get you hopes up too much.
I was a little disppointed at all the cables I had to hook up to get the TV, VCR, iPod and the unit itself hooked up and in sync. I thought the HDMI cable would be the universal outut to the TV, but it isn’t. This is probably the same on all home theaters in a box though.

Before purchasing this system I read a lot of reviews especially at Amazon. So after consideration and investigation I decided this was the purchase for me. Once hooked up I realized that this system really did not perform exactly like I thought it would. I realized that this was not your typical surround system; however I did think I would get a little surround sound, but so far that hasn’t been the case. At least not as much as I thought, but I do like the look and the point that it is HD and the DVD movies look GREAT. I did purchase a HD cable so I hope that this will improve the sound quality, time will tell.

Get it for $500 and it’s a great buy. Does a nice job for a bedroom set-up. Decent surround and bass. Makes TV shows have better sound (especially from a digital cable box) and holds 5 DVD’s for couch potatoes. HDMI to the TV with 1080i upgrade. Small speakers mount easily. AM/FM not too hot unless you have a very long antenna wire.
Not as good as your home theatre set-up but good for the second room.

I decided on this system while comparing it to the Bose 321 based on many reviews I read in various places on the web. I’m using it in a home with high ceilings and wide open space, but find the sound satisfactory with one exception. Interestingly, when I watch tv and have the sound coming thru the unit the volume is louder than when playing dvd’s in the unit. I have to turn the volume ALL the way up for it to be loud enough to enjoy the full effect on discs. This is a bit disconcerting, considering that some movies on dvd will not have the same volume as others, etc. Still, all things considered (i.e.–mostly price!), I feel that I made the right choice. Just don’t expect it to rattle the rafters in large open spaces. It might be better suited to a more intimate space. Hope this is helpful.

I looked at the 2.1 (two speaker, 1 subwoofer) home theatre in a box (HTIB) options extensively. The DAV-X1V is a decent option and a strong upgrade from the previous DAV-X1 product which remains available. The build quality is excellent and the tabletop speakers are solid and compact. It provides a very decent sound with some nice bass. The DVD player works well and puts out a good picture and sound and the integrated AM/FM radio work well. The 5-DVD/CD changer is a bit confusing to work and slow … but its passable. Frankly, since its hard to remember which DVD/CD is in which of the 5 slots … we ended up using one at a time. If your looking for a compact, well equipped HTIB system with very easy set-up at a reasonable price … this is a respectable option. I got down to this and the Samsung HT-Q100 … a similar product … but went with the Sony since the HT-Q100 is designed in a vertical presentation and I worried about infringing on the flat screen LCD which was to be mounted on the wall right above. If you are an audiophile at heart or truly want surround sound … be reasonable with your expectations. This (and most) of the 2.1 systems aren’t going to deliver the goods. You may also want to consider the Sony DAV-FX900W 5-Disc DVD Dream System which has a similar base unit as this system but includes a true 5.1 (5 speakers, 1 subwoofer) configuration but with the 2 rear channel (e.g., behind you) speakers in a wireless configuration. One final note … this unit has solid inputs with all the digital plugs but doesn’t include a headphone out jack. Not a deal breaker … but just something to consider. On the whole, this is a good option worthy of consideration.
