Customer Reviews

Worked well for a while, but quirky.
This was an inexpensive unit and when it's working it sounds great. But every once in awhile it goes into "eject lock" or "demo mode". It was difficult finding a solution to fix it. I found online if you hold the stop button for more than 10 seconds it goes back to normal. Now, maybe a year and half later, sometimes it just won't turn on. I have to pull the plug out of the power supply for awhile and then plug it back it. The sound would then work, but the menu wouldn't come up so I couldn't play the DVD I had stuck in it. 30 minutes after I gave up on the dvd it just popped out. One day a music dvd that was left in the system just started playing for no reason. I won't pay $70 to send it back and fix it, it wasn't that expensive to start with. Don't buy it, not worth the headache if it starts acting up.

Great sound - when it works
I have had this system for only 14 months. In that time I have had to send it back once, at a charge of $70, as it suddenly stopped responding - would not eject my dvd, turn off, anything. Now several months later it is doing it again, and LG will gladly "fix" it for another charge of $70! Now I have a useless dvd player with a dvd stuck inside of it. I'd rather destroy the machine to get my dvd out and go invest in something that works.

Okay for what it is
This system is clearly geared as an improvement over the speakers built into your television. The sound quality is pretty good, although there is no real way to adjust via an equalizer. I've been pleased with the quality from the upconverting DVD player, although I don't know if this is a big selling point now that blu-ray players have come down in price.

My biggest gripe is the fact that the amp is built into the sub and not the DVD player. That means that you are limited in where you can place the sub - you're basically stuck with putting it right next to your TV and not next to your couch or in a corner.

I have this system in a family room where running a full surround sound system really wasn't an option, so this has served us well. But now that I have a blu-ray player, I've found that it's really not expandable. With how I have to wire one player into another, it now only works with the blu-ray and not with the TV.
