I think it looks cheap and I prefer a drawer DVD/CD system to a slot, but at the low price.... I guess I got a year of use from it. I will NOT be purchasing any Philips product in the future. Every other DVD player I've owned (even the cheap versions)--Sony, Panasonic, Samsung---have lasted for many years, and are still going strong. from Amazon.com I went on to Amazon and saw the HTS6600 for the great price of $249.99 so purchased it. It normally sells for $500+. from Amazon.com Nor would it play. I should have listened to the reviews on this site that said the player had major problems. Philips tech support actually had the nerve to suggest that I take it to a service center and PAY to have the disc removed which they claimed they would refund. For a brand new player, this is pathetic, particularly when so many other people seem to have had the same problem. from Amazon.com Once it gets into this state, the only thing you can do is send it back for a replacement which takes about 3 weeks. My system was working great for 3 months, but then one day decided to chew up the CD. After a bit of research, I found a frimware upgrade that fixed the issue - but how do you suppose Phillips expects you to upgrade the HTS6500? By putting a CD in of course ;) from Amazon.com Wish there were more control there. But the system was very easy to hook-up & it looks real good....cleaned up the entertainment center. I have had other Philips surround sound systems, which we loved, but it quit playing DVD's. I'm really hoping that doesn't happen with this system. from Amazon.com I just purchased a 61" DLP TV from Amazon, and wanted to replace the multi speakers and wires running all over the room (per my wife's request!). I looked at Bose (very expensive) and several other systems that uses just two speakers and a woofer. I settled on the Philips HTS6500. I had some experience with Philips in Europe. from Amazon.com Philips HTS6500/37 home theater system: I am an electronics tech & in my work i have delt with a lot of home electronics including Philips. from Amazon.com Philips support is extremely incompetent. I could not get this system to broadcast the sound from my TV (which is also a Philips product and one of the reasons I chose to go with Philips) so I contacted them and they were futile - they were insulting and their professionalism and knowledge was almost nonexistent. from Amazon.com This home theater sys broke down on me, like previous reviewer, it just stopped reading DVDs. Not only that... Philips changed their phone number on product registration form, like they're hiding... and i had to search them down to file warantee. from Amazon.com After only 3 months of light use, the unit quit reading DVDs. Tried disc and laser cleaners, but nothing worked. Now I have to send it back to Philips for repair. We'll see how that goes. from Amazon.com
