This system satisfies both my fiance and I: he wanted a system that had great sound for our small family room and I wanted something that looked nice and wasn't expensive. Compared to other systems that we looked at, the price was great. Although our refurbished product did have a slight ding in it, it isn't noticeable to anyone but my fiance. He is technical and approved of its specifications. To me, it just sounds awesome when we are watching action movies, or just want to plug in our ipod. So overall, this system will satisfy those that know about home theater systems and for those that don't, but care about the look and price.

I have purchsed refurbished before, so I was expecting some minor nicks and scratches. The box was a mess, however, the unit was very well protected and I did not see any scratches or nicks. The only damage was on a grill on the back was dented. It is good little unit, can be a little difficult to get everything going, and the remote will not work other Philips products (not supriesed, my Philips Flat screan will not run a Phililps DVD player, and vice versa) Universal remotes will also not work, execpt turn the unit off. The sould is very good, and the surround is sound is very good. The only draw back is you cannot control the sound to the rear spakers.

I have found the product to work satisfactory. Has good sound. You will need to buy and HDMI cable to connect for best video and audio. Also the instruction book was a photocopy. But, at least I received one.
