Comments about Sony Sony 5.1 Channel Home Theater System Model HTDDW900:

Very good product to use in your livingroom home theater system. Easy to set up and easy to operate.
Only negative i've found so far is that the max volume level is pretty low and there are some movies that I'd like to turn up a bit more but am unable to.

Good value but for the uninitiated!

Comments about Sony Sony 5.1 Channel Home Theater System Model HTDDW900:

Good deal and price but after several weeks still do not have it set up properly.
I am not even sure will be able to use it to hear sound from my HDMI LCD TV.
Manual is both confusing and limited for a person who is a first timer to the world of HDMI and Surround sound.
Lists various connections but says you do not have to use all those illustrated, a bit confusing!
I don't want to spend more than necessary on cables so I will wait till my tech-savvy son has a look at the thing.

Abt Electronics Response: If you purchased from Abt, please give our tech support line a call so we can help you set this up properly.

Comments about Sony Sony 5.1 Channel Home Theater System Model HTDDW900:

Very quick and easy set up out of the box, good value for the features. HDMI pass thru a bonus, though upscaling would have been nice. Poor remote, buttons awkward to use and no backlight. Menu's not very clear though usable once set up is complete. Not something I would be changing very often though! Great sound, excellent base. Overall good deal for the money.
