Re: Is this System good or bad?


My blunt honest opinion is that is a complete waste of money. If you're on a budget, but want some boom and sizzle, I recommend a Logitech system(Z5500). By far, the best money you can spend on a HTIB. Ample power, lots of SPL, and enough features for a beginner into the AV world. If you end up moving on to bigger and better things you can always retire the system to a PC for some serious gaming/musical performance. I guarantee that system will destroy any HTIB in and under $600.

This system can be had for pretty cheap online, with a warranty.

Also, whatever you linked is just a receiver. You will still need a subwoofer and 5 speakers on top (at least, that is what my google search showed me).

I don't see much in that system either, but for 110 bucks, I'm not sure what you would expect.

That Logitech system that SheepStar mentioned is available at the Shack Store for $249 shipped. We also have a user review of it here.
