Sony DAV-HDX275 BRAVIA Home Theater System

I bought this system about a week ago and I looked at almost every site imaginable. I also went to multiple stores to find the best price and it was here at amazon.com. The system works great and I love how the ipod can be controlled from the remote of the DVD player. It didn't come with the wireless S-Air parts, but I do love the sound so I'm going to purchase S-air components, so that way I can listen the music all over the house... I would, and have, recommended this to a friend who after listening to it ordered it online that same day. In all... for the money this is an amazing deal for the great sound.

I appreciate the audiophiles' reviews of this system, but any criticism is mostly unfair. If home theater systems were cars, this system is a Cadillac. No, it's not a Lamborghini, it's not a Bentley, it's a Cadillac, and it's at Chevy pricing. Folks who are seeking the highest standard of sound quality have no business buying this system and broadcasting their esoteric disappointment in it. I purchased this system as a "get me by" system, that is, I wasn't expecting a lot from it... it was destined for the bedroom TV... a 42" Aquos LCD. I wasn't expecting much, but was blown away by the sharpness of this system's sound, and its ability to produce balanced movie bass. The upconversion is nice, especially on Pixar movies and other animated titles. I do highly recommend an HDMI cable for great color and sharpness (vs component video or S-video). Also, I do recommend this system's hardwire speakers over the S-AIR speaker/receiver system, which is highly susceptible to RFI/radio int... Read more

This thing sounds and looks great. I purchased the HDX275 with my Bravia 52" LCD. I figured the two would compliment each other and was I right. The sound is incredible and the auto calibration worked like a charm. I used a standard definition DVD (Alladin the Disney Movie) with lots of music and drama to see what it could do and I was blown away. The sound is incredible. The price is small and the sound is big. Quality unit for the price. Buy it.

I got this home theater as a bundle with my new sony TV. So basically it came out free for me. So i cannot complain for the price. I also purchased the speaker stands. Overall sound is great hence the 5 star. Here is my observation after last 1 month of use. Pro's: Setup was easy sound is awesome (as per price) long wires to go around the room (I am guessing the wires for surround rear speaker are ~50 feet) comes with a microphone to tune the system according to your room, etc FM / AM / DVD / TV modes work great Cons: has only 1 analog audio input. so if you are toggling between PC and TV and game consoles, you have to get to the back of this system and plug / unplug each time. there is only 1 HDMI out. does not have a graphic equilizer. I like to set the type of sound using graphic equilizer, but this set does not have this feature. It has only two modes - audio and movie. these modes are great but do not enhance certain type of sounds which I would like t... Read more

This all in one package Sony DAV-HDX275 system is bang for the buck. I got it for $225 plug tax and free shipping was a deal to steal. The 5-disc upconvertion DVD player is a plus and with crisp digital 5.1 sound along with a good solid bass. I would recommended it and Amazon shipping was awesome got it 4 days.
