Cheap ; Sounds pretty decent ; Has an optical input

Does not manage to play surround thats passed through my tv (could be the tv, but i suspect this stereo.) ; No user definable EQ settings (only a set of presets)

Sound's amazing. Fills any room with deep, rich bass and clear speech. The built-in DVD player is a bit overkill...as I already had one, but this one upmixes to my 46" 1080p beautifully. The iPod connection and On-Screen-Display for navigating songs...

Radio doesn't work that good at all for me, although it is the TV's fault. The TV causes electrical-magnetic interference that turns all my radio stations into static. This may not be the case for others ; My biggest complaint is the remote system. The...

this system is ok if any one wounder why i said its ok read the cons

i wouldnt waste my money on this system because its not worth the price cause of the haft a.. job LG Did on the ceneter speaker there only one speaker in the ceneter that why i give it 2 EGGS out of 5

Great price, and good looking unit. Easy and fast setup--took me about 2 hours from start to finish including ceiling mounted rear channel speakers. Sound exceeded my expectations for such an inexpensive unit

Can't adjust subwoofer volume. Collects and shows dust fast because of glossy black finish. Big remote control is not that intuitive--wife/kids has a tough time finding buttons

great sound, love the design, good features

I was very happy with this product until the DVD player suddenly stopped recognizing disks. cleaning the drive didn't help, and no firmgrade updates are available. Of course this happens at a time point just beyond the product warranty

HELLO MY FELLOW EGGIES, I JUST GOT THIS SYSTEM THIS WEEK AND THIS THING IS OFF THE CHAIN FOR MONEY I PAID FOR IT,(229).HOOKED IT UP TO MY 55INCH LG.CRYSTAL CEAR SOUND. MOVIES PLAY VERY CLEAR .THIS IS THE ONE THAT YA WANNA GET IF YA ON A...

I HAVE NONE

I bought it cause it had 5 eggs. It delivers 3x more than expected. It will play whatever you throw at it. MP3's, Avi, cdr,dvdr,usb not to mention it makes my new Samsung 52" rock. It is possibly the best $ 200.00 I have every spent

Small wire but works fine with it. Go figure

Deceptively powerful speakers. Certain to disturb your neighbors if you live in an apartment. I watched District 9 on Blu-ray, and the entire house shook, yet the sound stayed perfectly clear. If you closed your eyes you'd swear you were in the...

The IR remote is unresponsive, and there is no memory for settings, so every time you turn the receiver off it resets back to factory defaults. Not a terribly big deal since I use different settings depending on whether I'm watching a movie or playing...

For $219, I have no quarrels with the sound nor the 1080 upconvert picture that I watch on a Samsung 50" plasma. I have this set up in a room that is roughly 17'x15' and it fills the room nicely. It may not be tip top THX certified or what have you,...

Speaker wire is a little chinsy, but to be expected at this price. Also, while the bass is nothing to sneeze at, I know it could be a little deeper. Mom's got a Yamaha receiver/Polk 5.1 set-up w/ powered sub upstairs that puts a hurtin on the LG when...

Good sound quality for movies, music, and gaming ; Very good bass for a passive (non-powered) sub-woofer ; 1080p DVD upscaling looks sharp and crisp ; iPod connectivity and playback is well done ; Generous rear-speaker wire lenghts (about 20 feet,...

There's a noticeable lag when your audio sources (Xbox 360, PS3, Satellite/Cable box) are pass through your HDTV and then into this receiver. This may be an issue with my HDTV (also an LG), rather than the receiver itself. If you connect your devices'...
