4.0 out of 5 stars Great value all-in-one Home Theatre System! 9 Aug 2012

By Mr. R. V. Malin

Amazon Verified Purchase

Winning a five star review in the latest Computer Shopper magazine (Oct 2012) at considerably more money than the current Amazon price, I took the plunge and ordered this LG Home Theatre system. Was I mad? (Probably) Was I being hasty? (Definitely!) - in thinking that this would equal the sound of my existing system comprising Kenwood A/V Receiver, Mission 702e Speakers, Sony DVD player? Only time would tell.

Delivered within 48 hours the whole system comes in one large and very heavy box - the polystyrene packing is a work of art! Having spent a whole evening unpacking, assembling and setting up for basic operation, I was anxious to assess the sound quality, compared to my more orthodox previous 'hi-fi' amp/speaker combo. First impressions were that the system didn't have quite the 'weight' of sound I was used to, but after playing a selection of CD's I realised that I was listening to a system with different characteristics rather than inferior sound quality. In terms of bass response, as the music increases in volume, the sub kicks in and lends plenty of weight and in fact, for a budget priced system, the bass is very musical and not at all 'bump/thump'. All in all, a clear sound, plenty of power in reserve, only needing about a third of the available volume in quite a large room. There is a useful 'loudness' setting for low level listening and this effectively increases bass response at low volume - there is also scope for adjusting all the speakers for individual volume.
Next step was to tune the FM radio presets, very quick and easy to do. The whole system sounds great and looks very impressive and certainly looks like it cost a lot more money than it did.

So, why the 4 stars and not 5? Well, whilst I would not hesitate to recommend this LG system on the basis of sound quality and value for money, there are a few caveats to be aware of. I was surprised that there are no speaker fronts to offer any protection to the delicate looking drive units, particularly the soft-dome tweeters on the front and middle speakers. No problem in a child free environment, but anyone with young children with inquisitive fingers would be advised to turn the speakers around (when not in use) to protect them from damage.
Another issue is that when I press the 'standby' button on my Samsung TV remote, (to put the TV into standby mode) it also turns the LG receiver off. This isn't a problem at the end of a viewing session, but if you are accessing anything on the LG system menu on the TV screen(tuning a radio station in or adjusting settings etc) when I then turn the TV off, the LG goes off as well, meaning I have to turn the LG on again. Not a big deal but annoying. It may just be a one off and chances are you won't have this issue depending on the make and model of your TV. (The handset for the LG can be set to give basic TV operation for a range of makes and models of TV but this is nothing to do with the issue I have.)

A final gripe is that the terminals on the back of the speakers and the main receiver unit, are all spring clips (not proper binding posts as on dedicated hi-fi gear) and if, like me, you try and use higher quality cables, you will have to carefully trim the exposed copper strands before it will locate in the terminals. Not a problem for people setting up a system for the first time but I was using my existing QED cables that were already buried under the carpet!

So there you go, a rather long-winded review but I hope it makes sense. When I have purchased my first Blu-Ray disc I will update this review with some information on picture quality. However, judging by the reviews I have read, the picture quality is superb, on both Blu-Ray and upscaled DVD discs.

If you want a great all-in-one package that looks as good as it sounds, what are you waiting for?!

Added on 13th August 2012 - Have now watched a couple of Blu-Ray movies and can report that the picture quality is superb. That's without me tweaking any of the settings on my TV or on the LG player - the picture shows great detail and very solid blacks in dark scenes. I won't be replacing any of my existing DVD's but will definitely be buying any future releases on Blu-Ray where possible.

On the subject of my LG remote inadvertently controlling my Samsung TV - I think I have found out what is going on. A facility called 'SIMPLINK' is a means for one piece of LG kit controlling another, as inputs are switched on and off etc. (A quick Google search revealed a whole lot of info.) What I hadn't realised was that Samsung have a similar system called Anynet+, which works with SIMPLINK, and this is why it appeared that my remote controls were conflicting. In reality it was control signals being sent down the HDMI cable that was causing my problem. I have now disabled the 'Anynet+' feature on my Samsung TV and now I can control both pieces of kit completely independently. Perfect! (Disappointing that LG's customer services couldn't point me in this direction when I contacted them.)

Still only 4 stars though due to the poor terminal clips on the speakers and amp and the lack of any protective speaker grilles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why Did I Wait 29 Sep 2012

By T. jones

Bought this as our DVD was on last legs and decidedn to get Blu Ray so could use the HD1080 LG TV we bought 2 years ago. Why had I not done this before even the old DVD's come to life with the 5.1 sound. Easy to set up, simply match the coloured leads. Bought an optical lead to run from TV and yes you do have to press button twice but if that is the price then hardly hard. When you have finished switch off the TV and the cinema follows it off without having to press extra buttons. The ipod/iphone connection is great simply plug in using usb and the contents are on screen so you can relax and scroll through playlists etc. Great with Apple having changed connections for the iphone 5

The base sound is fantastic have to keep the volume down or will have the neighbours on the phone to environmental control. Can't wait to really give it the beans, only run at 50% volume and that is enough. The options on the sound are great you can simply shut speakers off by toggling through a simple menu.

Watched Indiana Jones again, thought the darts were actually in the air. The price is the real deal breaker a decent Blu Ray will cost �100 having it combined with the Cinema plus the wireless internet access to NetFlix, BBC iPlayer etc make the �250 which it can be got a real bargain. It also looks tidy and not too obtrusive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great package! 17 Sep 2012

By D. Johnson

Amazon Verified Purchase

For the money, this package really does cover all bases. OK, so you don't get some of the bells and whistles that you might find on seperates but they really have managed to pack in a lot of functionality into a very reasonably priced system. The Blu Ray picture is really good, the player is pretty basic though so depending on what features you get from your current or previous player it's worth acknowledging this. The SMART element of the box is pretty good, needs a few more apps like most of these types of service. The only ones I think are really useful are Netflix and LoveFilm (which require subscription). As I don't have a PS3 to connect to these services it's a nice touch to just stream movies directly for the internet. Make sure you're Broadband speed is up to this, I'd recommend 10mb+. You can also hook up your iPod/iPhone which is really useful. I like to play internet radio stations through Shoutcast and the Radio app, and you can simply plug your phone into the unit and it'll charge it at the same time. It doesn't have a 'dock' but actually that's a good thing with the iPhone 5 coming out on 21/09 and having a different dock (9pin instead of 30pin). The USB on the unit is on the front behind a flap on the left, and if I'm being picky it might have been cosmetically better to position this on the rear. It's got wireless connectivity so you can stream pictures and other files from wireless devices onto your TV which may come in useful, I found pictures took a long time to transmit but still a handy feature especially when cameras get wifi built in. So all this information and I'm not even onto the speakers yet.... the sound quality is very good and the volume range is more than acceptable unless you're after something loud. The sub, although passive it's more than capable of generating a good amount of bass to bring a film or song to life. Overall this package is excellent value, yes, the menu/unit could be more responsive to instruction via the remote, yes the player could have a few features built in, but you wouldn't be getting all this for under �300 if that was the case. If that's your budget, I think you'll be very happy with this purchase.
