Advantages: Really good speaker quality, and cable length.

Disadvantages: Has no optical cable output.

The unit is quite slim line so you are able to place it nearly anywhere, and also the slim line makes it look good.

The speakers itself are quite attractive, and are really good, they perform quite well even at loud volumes. The sound quality is great. Also the speaker cables that you get in the box are fairly long, so I was really able to place the back speakers at the back of the room, and not use extra cable.

It has a HD upscale that increase the quality of normal DVD to much better quality on the HD output by a HDMI. The quality of the upscale is really good, when i compared it to my normal DVD player.

However the system does not have an optical cable output, and you really need this if you want to experience a full 5.1 surround effect!

But other than that the quality of the speakers is great, even the sub woofer has a great amount of bass! Really good at parties or just watching movies.

Not quite sure about the other review on this product saying that you cannot play iPod and mp3 players, as the unit has a 3.5mm audio in at the front, from which I am able to connect my iPod from, however it does miss the usb function.

Rated 4 starts due to not having an optical cable output.

Summary: Great overall, but would be better if it had an optical cable output.
