Costumer Evaluations

Good residence theater for the price tag. I bought this mainly(98%) for playing PS3. The sound is wonderful and you will be impressed, that is, if you have little to no expertise in residence theater. This program is the preferred obtain at this cost range. Stay away from these other Samsung and Sony systems. The receiver alone is worth ~200$.

These speakers are really good for a tiny to medium size space. Do not order these for a big living space.

The surround sound works superior on these things, and the receiver has plenty of modes for whatever you're watching.

Subwoofer is enormous(seriously) and is passive meaning that it gets its power from the receiver which is not the top factor in the globe. The HT-S5400 having said that, has a subwoofer that isn't passive meaning that you will get louder, stronger "booms"

This technique also has no USB ports for connecting your iPod/iPhone. The HT-S5400 7.1 Channel does nonetheless. This also does not have a mic which implies that it cannot exactly balance voices and action scenes in films. This is finding fairly annoying as I get myself getting to have the volume controller subsequent to me.

A single thing I just have to note is these four/four.5 stars it has. These are from evaluations from consumers that are to begin with time buyers. These 4 stars are NOT the same 4 stars given to these $700+ systems. 1 factor that is fairly a lot true and I'm sure you've heard it. You get what you spend for. If you honestly do have much more cash get the far better system. You'll be glad you did. This is an investment and I'm confident you are not just going to maintain it for a month or two.

Onkyo help is a piece of- not gonna say it-. I've tried calling and emailing, but whenever you email them, they just suggest you call them and whenever you call them, they just transfer you, and transfer you, and transfer you. Horrible and I hope this thing in no way breaks on me considering that I may as well just throw it in the trash.

PS3 Users:

While playing PS3 games(some, not all), the sound, and in other games both sound and picture, cut out. FIFA 12 and LittleBigPlanet, for example, cuts out each few games and begins freezing for five seconds then coming back but then freezing again. A 15 minute game takes half an hour when this happens and it really is super annoying. I've contacted Onkyo help, but it's no use.

General:

three out of five

Pro:

-Superior technique for beginners with little-medium sized rooms.

-4 HDMI ports(Typically, other cheap systems at this prize give you 1 or two)

-Easy set up(basic devices)

-Gets the surround sound/dwelling theater job carried out

Cons:

-Passive Subwoofer

-No USB ports

-No Mic

-Cables(back speakers) could run brief for medium sized room. Just lengthy adequate for my back speakers and the room is tiny.(15'x12'+/-)

-Onkyo Assistance

-Lack of PS3 Help(somewhat)

Everything appears great so far. I have some fairly decent monitor speakers hooked up rather of the fronts, so I cant comment on the entire method. That said, the receiver has just about every choice I could ever have to have. You cannot get a receiver for 300$ that is far better, or has extra selections than this one particular, so with the speakers and sub included it seems like a amazing deal. Took ten-15 minutes to set up. Easy on screen menu and set-up possibilities. I had a Denon AVR-391 that I just returned to Finest Buy, and this Onkyo Receiver has an additional optical audio input, and the audio basically passes by way of the hdmi cables exactly where the Denon didnt. Totally no complaints following watching a couple Tv shows and listening to diverse forms of music, anything sounds genuinely good for the value.
