Have well tested a weeks device. From the connectivity and the sound I can only add my voice to previous speakers - I was perfectly happy :-) The only drawback: the fans! First of all I was surprised that the device does need a fan (my two-year-old home-cinema system from Sharp did not need). Ok, my Panasonic HDD recorder has a fan and is almost inaudible, so I resigned myself to. However, seems at this point the reason for the low price to lie: That thing is really loud! Ok, not as loud as my PC fan, but even pushy, especially in quiet scenes in movies (Dialog) or soft music is always to be heard rattling. If you turn the system properly, it does not like a bother, but if you want to have a quiet evening sometimes, it just annoys. I have the device returned and brought me the Sony DAV DZ 231. In the one immediately noticed the improved quality of the installed fan. In the volume comparable to my hard drive recorder. Conclusion: Who looks LOUD movies and listening music, not quite as much money to spend and want to look for a large amount of connectivity options, is well served by this system, therefore 4 stars.
