The product itself is very nice - easy to install, making good sound. But, the one I received from Bestbuy has two taller and two shorter speakers, which is different from what is advertised. Not sure if this is an old or foreign version. Customer service doesn't have any idea and never been helpful. I am happy with the sound it's making, but...

For a HTIB, the sound on this system is pretty good; better than the Panasonic HTIB it replaced. But the DVD player is problematic. Because it's a top-load design, you have to click the disk onto the spindle. This didn't work well with Netflix DVD's, which have a label applied around the center and interferes with the tabs on the spindle. If the disk isn't firmly attached with all three tabs, the disk wobbles a bit. Even worse, after it's closed, if the disk is wobbly it gets stuck and the top won't open again so you can fix it. This was almost a weekly occurrence, especially when children were using it. Cycling power and quickly hitting "open" before the disk could spin up again was the only remedy. I see this as a design flaw on these top-load designs; a draw-type design doesn't have this issue. So there's nothing to "repair". The sliding door is certainly slick, but not worth the trouble it causes. This system would probably be OK for someone that doesn't rent disks, or is diligent enough to ensure the disk is on right each time. It's otherwise a compact system with decent sound for movies (not really music) that doesn't take up much space. Kudos to Best Buy BTW. I lived with this several weeks past my return window, but the local store agreed to take it back and give me store credit toward separate components.
