If you are looking for a 2.1 system for a large living room or home theater room, stay away, it quite simply lacks the power to fill a large room. If you are looking for a cheap unit with plenty of power to fill say, an apartment living room or a bedroom, I'd get one, for the money (I got it when it was on sale for $150) it is 100% worth it. This system has a really sharp look to it, LG seems to have some good people on the art department payroll as many of their electronics are in the same boat. As far as functionality is concerned, there are a few quirky things that I and I'm sure many other are willing to look past for the sheer cost/benefit ratio. from Circuitcity.com Pros: sound and price Cons: display on top, should be in front. "Just what I wanted. The LG 2-1 are great , easy to set up and has great sound . With the LG 42 LCD HD I have, the LG 2-1 go hand and hand. from Bestbuy.com Pros: small,great surround sound,very easy to use,upconverts normal DVDs to 1080i/1080p Cons: not easily expandable "The LG LFD790 is by far my most favorite 2.1 virtual surround sound system, it has clear sound it's XM satalite ready and upconverts normal dvds to a higher resoultion. I own this and a 5.1 bose surround system and I perfer this one. from Bestbuy.com It absolutely looks gorgeous and it sounds really nice. My room is about 12 X 15 with a wide opening on one side and it still sounds great. It is small and matches my LG TV of course. The only improvement would be a button to switch easily to the TV instead of having to go to Auxiliary. from Bestbuy.com This one was defective out of the box (no video and yes it was connected properly). Tech support was useless. First and last LG purchase. from Circuitcity.com i own an LG phone, as does my wife. 42 plasma and 32 lcd, both LG. from Circuitcity.com Pros: Easy to install, sounds great and looks good Cons: Instructions "My wife and I didn't want the 5.1 mess of speakers everywhere, but wanted to be able to hear the conversations as well as the sound effects. This LG system delivered! It sounds great, especailly on the XTS sound setting. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Easy set up, great sound quality, looks great Cons: Not for the novice home theatre expert "I just received this LG for a X-mas present and I couldn't have been any happier! This goes perfect with my plasma TV (which is also a LG), and the sound quality is excellent. from Bestbuy.com "You won't believe your eyes or ears! This stylish system is a great mid-priced system for the home theater fan that doesn't want to be troubled with running rear speaker wires. The LG 2.1 system sounds better than many 5.1 systems I've seen. It will upconvert your standard DVD's to 1080i for unparralleled picture clarity on your HDTV. from Bestbuy.com 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. from Amazon.com

Description

The LG LFD790''s handsome design will look right at home even next to today''s high-end flat-panel displays. The slimline front panel of the head unit (combined receiver/DVD player) has just a few buttons to control the CD/DVD player, but no display. If you want to know what track on a CD you''re playing, for example, you''ll have to walk over to the head unit and look at the display on top panel (or have your TV on, because the information is displayed there as well). The head unit is also smaller than average, just 3.1 inches tall by 12.8 inches wide by 8.5 inches deep. The remote is certainly more generic-looking, but it was easy to use.
