    Needed a replacement system for our 5th wheel camper. Set it up in our living room for test. It sounds great and will be perfect for the space in our camper. Surround sound functions very well and it was simple to setup. Read more

    I bought this system in July 2007 and right off the bat, had problems with it. The DVD would freeze and then I would turn the system off and then on again and the system would say "No Disc". This was a little bit of a problem for a couple weeks and then it worked perfectly fine for about a year. September 2008, the system freezes all the time, only playing the DVD's for about two minutes. I called Philips customer service and they said that the warranty was for a year so... Read more

    For the money this is a good system--not great, not lousy, just good. The sound quality is just not as good as some other systems I've used. My primary system is an Onkyo tuner/amp and Bose speakers--this Philips system just doesn't compare. It was purchased for a bedroom though and it's fine for that. For my taste there is too much bass which sounds "muffled" and the mid-range and highs are flat. You can do some minor tweaking (only in the DVD mode) of individual... Read more

    Two years ago we purchased a Philips HTS3544/37 Theater System. We totally enjoyed this system.  I am a musician and sound is important to me.  This has a tremendous sound for a very reasonable price.  Unfortunately it started getting ... Read more

    The system arrived in excellent condition. It was easy to set up, (good instructions) and it has features I was surprised to find on a system at this price, such as adjustable volume for each speaker. My wife likes the convenience of the ipod dock and the uninterrupted music play that allows. We haven't tried the slide show feature yet, but like the idea. The sound quality is as good as can be expected for the price. Read more
