    Item is appealing to my teenager because of all the lights, etc...but the sound quality is terrible. Also, don't by into the 1800 watts and believe you are going to shake the house. Not going to happen...

    I don't like the protect system in this stereo,it has no aux. Port. It's rated at 1800 watts but the less expensive model at 700 watts was louder. The return policy is awful and I had to throw a 600. stereo away

    I,ve been purchasing Sony shelf systems for a bit over 20 years now, and by far this is the best one to date. I listen to a lot of different genres of music and being a mobile DJ I have a huge library. I tested out the system with many types of genres and it never disappointed. Even at high volumes the system maintain clarity and the bass was also very clear and solid not punchy or muddy. I've seen that other reviews stated that the sound was terrible, I don't know what system they were listening to but it sure wasn't this one. When it comes to audio equipment I consider myself to be picky but I am extremely pleased with the sound that this system produces. They did not have a display unit at the store I purchased it at so when I got home the subwoofer was a little bigger than I anticipated, which was a good thing. If you love and enjoy rich deep bass with plenty of clarity then this is the system for you.

    Great stereo system

    I was in the market for a new home stereo system. I had purchased the LG CM-4550 a few days prior. That was a mistake. You really do get what you pay for. That was a very weak stereo with nearly non-existent bass. I had returned the LG and purchased this Sony a few days later and I have not had a complaint since. The sound is very clear while the bass can be felt throughout the house. This Sony is definitely the way to go.

    Someone complained about the noise and lives 6 miles away in a different neighborhood. Rich powerful sound and has visual stimulation with LEDs that will change colors at 200bpm precisely, I don't know how they make the lights go with the music but it is a really neat feature. Also sounds excellent with any music genre at any volume unless you're trying to have a party with more than like 200 people.

    Powerful sound but subwoofer is WEAK!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My old Sony MHC-EC 909iP had the most brutal, wall shaking bass...but the CD player started skipping and stopping all the time so I bought this one. I ONLY use Sony audio because it's the best sound for the price. I was excited as I hooked up this new system and put some music on. While the sound is clear and powerful, the bass is hardly audible. This subwoofer is WEAK, almost like it's not even there! I'm a bass freak and was very disappointed. The salesperson at Best Buy said I could easily hook up the speakers from my old system...WRONG! I'm not happy about this lack of bass but everything else is okay. If you're looking for a system that has good sound and you DON'T need earth-shaking bass, you'll like this. But if you NEED THE WALLS TO SHAKE WITH BASS, you won't like this item. It's loud and has clear sound with no distortion at high volumes....nice but like I said, bass is seriously lacking even with mega bass on. Meh.

    A friend of mine has some SONY speakers that he has had for a few years now and i loved them. I purchased these thinking they would be just as great or better. I noticed that these are louder, but his have a much powerful bass, and half the wattage. Overall these speakers are great, but i was expecting the bass to be a little more powerful, even with the Bass Boost. Great for a party or something though, i'm just a bass fanatic.
