Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great Home Theater, Failed in less than 2 weeks! Comment: It is great 5-DVD Home theater system. Great Sound for the money. However, I was really disappointed by the Quality Control and Cheap Fans used on this system. The Main fan on the DVD module failed in less than 3-weeks. The rear wireless speaker amplifier fan is very noisy. THe unit is now shipped back to Samsung for Repairs. I love Samsung products. However, I am pretty sure that Samsung has a lot of work to be as same Quality level as Sony. Sony is just works like a Rolex watch! Customer Rating: Summary: Good sound but unreliable Comment: I really wanted to like this unit, since the sound is really excellent for the price, and the speakers and small and unobtrusive. But after all the problems I've had, I definitely wouldn't buy this again. - The wireless speakers disconnect continuously. I've tried turning off wireless routers in my house and it makes no difference. The only thing that works is resetting the rear speakers and entering a "secret reset password" on the main unit to get everything back in sync. I do this every time I watch a film. If I don't do this the unit flashes "REAR CHK" and pauses the sounds every 30 seconds until I do. - The "secret reset password" is something you'll only find by Googling problems with the unit (turn off, type 0-1-3-5 and everything resets). There's nothing in the manual or on Samsung's support site. In fact, all the documentation has as much value as firepaper. - There's no input for cable TV - why? On the plus side, here are the steps for unlocking the unit to become multiregion (you have to follow the steps precisely): 1. Remove disc from tray. 2. Switch off player and unplug from mains. 3. Wait 30 seconds, then reconnect mains. 4. Turn on player with remote. Wait for player to finish loading and display 'no disc'. 5. Press enter on remote. (There will be no on-screen response.) 6. Press 8, 4, 2, 6, 9 on the remote. (There will be no on-screen response.) 7. Press enter on the remote. Player will automatically shut off. 8. Turn player on. 9. Turn off. 10. Turn player on then off again. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Sound and Looks, But..... Comment: For starters, as soon as i took this system out of the box i was blinded by beauty. Every piece is glossy black and sleek. Very nice. Hooked it all up and everything was very straight-forward. The instructions are very simple to follow. All screws and such were there. No problems...yet. Now, the main problem i had that almost caused me to pull my hair out is the wireless reciever. When i first got the system fired up and running everything worked great. Watched a movie and got about 3/4 the way through and the rear speakers went out. Got the flashing CHK REAR. So i checked everything and all was connected fine. So, i turned off the system and turned it back on and the rears worked great once again. So, i decided to play some Xbox 360 using this system. Again, worked great for about an hour or so and then got the CHK REAR flashes again. by this time i got really frustrated. I went through all the troubleshooting steps in the manual, looked everywhere online for help and found nothing. I moved the wireless reciever to different locations thinking mabye it wasn't getting a clear connection to the main reciever. No luck! I did not want to call Samsung because i knew they'd make me go through all the steps once again, but i was at wits end and thought it was my last resort. So, before i decied to make the call i started fooling around with the wirless card that plugs into the back of the main unit. I noticed that if i pushed in and held the card that the rear speakers would connect and remain connected. So, i got some clear shipping tape and put a couple strips on the card positioning it so that it is being forced into the main reciever. After doing this i haven't had 1 issue out of the rear speakers. Everything sounds beautiful. I use my PS3, Xbox 360, Cable TV with it and they all sound superb. Its a great system, but the wireless troubles need to be addressed with Samsung. All in all, i would definitly recommend this system but beware of the rear wireless hacks that may have to be done to get it to work properly. Also, the rears aren't really wirless as they are wired to the wireless reciever. Saves from having to run wires from the tv to the rears though. If anyone has any questions or would like pics then message me and i'll be happy to assist ya. :-) Customer Rating: Summary: Very good system Comment: For the price this system can't be beat. The sound quality is great and the wireless rear speakers work as advertised. It does not interphere with my wireless internet contrary to previous reviews. I bought this system to match with my new Samsung HDTV and the Anynet feature makes using these devices with one remote easy. My standard DVD's do look sharper with the built in HD DVD converter. On a seperate note worth mentioning, I recieved my first home theater damaged. I called Amazon late Saturday afternoon and I had a new Home Theater by Wednesday. They sent me the return shippers in my Email and had a replacement on the way Monday Morning before I dropped the damaged one off. Very impressive product support and customer service! Customer Rating: Summary: Not bad, not great Comment: Well I read a lot of reviews of the HT-Z515T, other Samsung models, the Panasonic and Sony models of similar specs. This is a really good sounding unit with some really silly flaws that make daily use bothersome. Still a great bargain and would recommend if you don't mind the flaws I list. Pros *Excellent sound, especially for this price range. I don't think there is a product with comparable sound without paying several hundred more. *Very good dvd/cd playback. It doeas have some difficulty with dirty or moderately scratched disks that my Sony 5 disk player had no trouble with, but this may be a function of the higher quality of the reader. *small footprint of speakers, player and wireless unit. *mostly good coordination with Samsung tv *Excellent combatibility with ipod Cons *1st problem is it is really difficult to compare the various models of Samsung ht's. *terible remote - no backlight, small buttons that are pourly laid out. *sometimes disconnects from Samsung tv when changing from dvd to cable input. *no hdmi input *does not display the track number in cd play (just stupid!!) *displays static samsung logo while playing cd's. No screen save in this mode. More Reviews
