easy to setup, fairly easy to use but mine started screamin (high pitched sound) after I used it – and turned it off – yes powered down.

After playing a DVD, and then turning the unit off, I would wake up in the middle of the night – thinking my ears were ringing – nope – had to unplug the unit to get it to stop.

They replaced the main system board and something else, hope that works, haven’t tried it out yet.

Well, it has all the features to make you think that this is going to be an awesome system.
Pros:

Works well with samsung TV

It scans a dvd and tells samsung tv the absolute best display settings. The upconverting on DVDs is so good, who needs Blu-Ray?

Slim design. All in one.

Cons:

The PC connection is so annoying to deal with and will not with if you have a MAC, that don't even count on it as a selling point. The Ipod connection is ok, but very slow and hardly worth using. But, The sound is the most dissappointing. The voices in all settings eventually have a hollow sound, the Bass is set so high, and even when you use the minimal setting screen to set it lower, it doesn't go down by much. The connection to Pandora Music skips at times. I have 802.11n router and with a wired connection. Not to include as a selling feature. Rating: 2 / 5

I have never used a Blue Ray Home Theather before, and there is a big difference with the DVD Home Theater.., definetely the sound improves a lot and the quality of the video is amazing, however to get the best quality it’s necessary to buy a good TV with 120Hz or higher frequency (LED).

bought 2 samsung adapters and wireless does not work. worked initially and then stopped, other features are ok, but I bought it, in part, for wireless streaming movies from Netfix. Sound is ok, nothing special. From other websites I see that others have had problems with the internet connection. Might be a problem on this model.
