Pros: Great Movie sound. Cons: Cables should have been included. "I use this Sony Home Theater System for watching TV and movies. It has more than lived up to my expectations. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Features: Digital audio, HDMI, Component inputs, DVD Cons: Poor crankability: No bang for your buck "I particularly bought this home theatre system because of it's features. But I was not expecting mediocrity from Sony. I recently had a 800 watt Panasonic that had more boom than this. from Bestbuy.com But you can save aggravation if you purchase the several cables and other accessories that you will need to hook it up that don't come with the unit. The other reviews were very helpful to me in learning this before I made my purchase. For example, if you have HDTV, you need to buy an HDMI cable (which cost $70 at Best Buy) to connect to the DVD to the TV to get the upconverted picture from DVDs that Sony advertizes. You will also need to buy 2 digital optical cables to get sound from the DVD and from the TV (another $30 each). from Bestbuy.com Pros: Good sound for the money, Sony brand Cons: Crummy included wire, NO HDMI SOUND VIA HDMI CABLE "All in all good product. Great sound for the money, automated setup (once you get all the connections made) is easy (and loud). from Bestbuy.com Replacing similar Sony system 6 years old. Purchased for HDMI compatability. from Circuitcity.com Some months later one of the hdmi inputs became intermittent. Not too happy with tiny center channel speaker. Replaced with a larger Sony speaker after a couple of weeks. Overall not very happy so I bought a Yamaha 5.1 receiver, also with hdmi pass through, and just kept the Sony speakers. from Amazon.com Sony HT7100DH Component Home Theater System with HDMI from Amazon.com For the most part, this system does what it says it will do for a reasonable price. Set up is a little complicated, but just thumb through the manual(s). Only complaint is that in order to utilize the DMP(Digital Media Port) you have to buy a $100 docking station from Sony that is ONLY compatible with (taken from an email from Sony Support): from Amazon.com I am using this as the brain for my entertainment system in the living room. So far I have a Sony 40" Bravia 1080p connected, a HD-DVR, a turntable, the 5-disc changer, a separate CD player, a nintendo wii, and an ipod dock. I haven't run into much trouble with the lack of an audio feed through the HDMI, since all the audio is going through this amplifier anyway - I just keep the television audio muted and it just plays directly through the 5 speakers - no problem. from Amazon.com a disappointment for a Sony product. The speakers are pretty whimmpy...you have to fine tune the levels of each to get a good setting for yourself...the autocal system for sound is a nice feature, but the best results prolly will need your own tuning...the subwoofer is pretty bulky...the receiver is good...the DVD 5-disc changer is a nice feature, you can use it as a 5-disc CD chger if you like...yes, you would serve well if you have an optical cable...the speaker wires connections can be tricky and difficult - depends on how well experience you are with these things...this is definitely not a plug and play system...will take time and patience for the hookup and fine tuning of the sound...but once you have spent some hrs on such, you will do fine... from Amazon.com
