So, yes, the unit is priced cheap, and with all those speakers, don't be expecting them to be great. Replace at least the main speakers, and you still got a good stereo for music for the price, but just music. The amp has this power-save or noise reduction scheme that turns off all power to the speakers when there is any silence, and doesn't power them back on for almost 0.5 seconds when someone breaks the silence.

I thought since my 30 year old RCA TV was still working that a RCA sound system would be a good deal. WRONG! Even with 1000 watts of power the sound was sorta weak to me. It took a long time to power up and to change settings from TV to DVD and all the others. Mine started making a weired buzzing, humming, rattle noise when I turned it on after only having it for 85 days. It sounded like a cooling fan going bad inside. Read more
RCA Rt2770 5.1-Channel, 1000-Watt Receiver Home Theater System 1 I wanted a powerful thousand watt system to replace my 350 watt system that was getting old and did not have the inputs that i would like now that I have an hdtv. This system has all the inputs and outputs necessary for home theater it really lacks in sound quality. There is no hard thumping realistic bass. My old system had a 100 hundred watt sub the sounded so much better. Read more
In its standby mode, the system uses only 0.8-watts of power and is 47 percent more efficient than the model it replaces. The unit features a flexible speaker configuration for optimal surround sound and a USB input to connect mp3 players, thumbdrives, and digital cameras.
