3 out of 5 stars Good not great   September 30, 2008
Ronald D. Myers
I wanted to improve the sound for my Samsung TV. I bought this Surround system because I thought it would do that. I have the HDMI connection and an optical connection, so the sound does play through the system when the TV and Surround are on. Yes, the Surround system will turn off as claimed when I turn off the TV, but when I turn on the TV I still need to turn on the Surround System, which means two remotes.

My major complaint, however, is that I cannot find a way to change the treble and base balance when the sound source is the TV. The adjustments on the TV seem to do nothing. I have gone from a tinny sound to a muffled base tone. Ugh!



4 out of 5 stars Great System...Great Buy   September 25, 2008
Jason A. Wade
Love the system so far. Had it for about 2 weeks and as of yet..no problems. Sound is AMAZING!! Play games such as Madden or Call of Duty...MAN...IS IT AMAZING, sounds like im actually on the field or actually in war!! Movies also sound great on the system. I have mines set on surround sound which has all the speakers working at the same time...and I cant really tell a difference when the 2 rear speakers arent on, because the front speakers has alot of sound and the sub-woffer is GREAT adds alot of bass!! If you are looking for a home theater system and you are on a budget, i would highly recommend getting this as your starter choice, even long term depending if you actually want a blu ray player (i have a ps3 so there is no need for me to get a higher dvd system) Design, by the looks of it is pretty nice. Its a lil...um...basic, but i dont really care too much about design as long as i get great sound...thats all i really cared for. Can't wait to watch The Dark Knight and The Incredible Hulk on this system!! I own a Vizio 32" HDTV and i didnt have any trouble connecting to the system. I did use a digital audio optic cable. I felt that it was no reason for getting the HDMI cables for it because i wasnt going to use the DVD player too often and for audio..i felt that the digital audio optic cable was better because i can use that to listen to everything i had my tv hooked up to, which was the PS3 and 360. But really good buy, im glad i purchased it and got it VERY fast from Amazon (Amazon Prime)!!


1 out of 5 stars Junk! Drive failed after 90 days of light use   August 21, 2008

I played back about 20 DVD's over 3 months. Then the drive no longer plays DVD's OR CD's. It just ejects any disk placed in the drive.

Purchased this system with a Samsung 40" HDTV and am very pleased with both. We had a 32" Phillips and Sony 5.1 100w receiver with a powered sub woofer. The new sound system is perfect for our small family room (14x20') and the speakers, while tiny, fill the room and are barely noticable. Comments as to wire length,gage and non-generic fittings are all true but for me, were not a problem in setting up or wall mounting the speakers. Handle with care, since it is thin plastic.

I did buy the SWA-3000 remote amplifier which really cleaned up the installation. It was a refurbished unit and came without directions. (NOTE: the reset of the SWA-3000 is tricky and Samsung level 1 tech support was useless)

Since we have digital cable, I had trouble with coordinating all 3 remotes so I purchased a Harmony 550 which allows the use of one single remote. Logitech support will walk you through the set-up to customize for your specific needs. This way, the TV does not turn on when I play a CD or listen to the radio.

I have turned off the TV speakers and use this system for TV audio, finding the "matrix" mode to provide the best surround sound. Watching DVD's is a renewed pleasure, perhaps more due to the larger screen; however, the surround sound is superior to my prior system.

I believe, for the average viewer looking for quality sound and value in a very compact unit, you won't be dissapointed. Certainly, audio/videophiles might find fault with this system but for the price, I feel it offers great value, sound and image quality.



5 out of 5 stars Samsung HT-Z310 (not image)   August 19, 2008

the main image for this product is 2 tall speakers for the front and 2 small rear speakers.. WARNING... that is not what you get.

you will receive 4 small speakers.. the main image is actually the (HT-Z410T)

but this product works great

Sound,look, upscale = great

sound cable length = could be better

i recommend this, if you going to go wireless or if you dont mine splicing some cable so your rear speakers...could actually reach the "rear"
