A solid performer, sounds great, looks great!, (What's this?) Upgraded from a 10 year old Sony 5.1 receiver, this thing rocks! Had it out of the box, set up, and configured in about an hour. The receiver sounds great, and I couldn't be happier for the price. Samsung is not as well known in the surround sound receiver market but I wouldn't give a second thought to recommending this unit to a friend.
Note: I received my first unit 1/7/11 and the unit was dead on arrival with a "protection error". Amazon immediately sent a replacement and I couldn't be more impressed with amazon customer service.
Had the potential to be a good AVR but it's not, (What's this?) First of all this item should not be called Home Theater in a Box but simply a 7.1 A/V receiver since there are no speakers bundle with it, I knew that forehand so there was not surprised when I got the package.
Don't buy this thinking that you'll get a high quality AVR, it's a big metal box with very little ventilation and feels lightweight compared to other receivers, the sound quality is average, HDMI-CEC sometimes works and others won't, even when matched with a Samsung 2010 plasma 3DTV it fails to function properly, speaker calibration with included mic gives you strange settings I end up doing the calibration manually, mine was defective since it worked for 15-30 minutes then would shutoff and all the speaker/system configuration would go back to factory settings.
Big bang for little $$$ -- ***, I've only had this unit now for a few days but I am loving it! I have a Samsung TV plus a Samsung Blu-ray player so the Anynet interconnection works well especially with the Blu-ray player; its very nice to simply press "eject" on the Blu ray player and watch the Blu-ray player, the AV Receiver plus the TV all come on by themselves and place the TV in the proper mode for watching.
Listening to movies in 7.1 HD audio is fabulous! ... and the other audio affects this unit offers too makes other 7.1 sound sources come to life.
I do have a separate 10" subwoofer connected with this unit so I can not testify for its overall power but with a sub, you do not need much power to drive the other speakers.
Big Bang for the Dollar., (What's this?) I just got my Samsung HW-D700/ZA receive today, and let me say it is amazing and everything I hopped it would be and more. When I first saw it, I was a little suspicious of the receiver because nothing can be that cheap and good at the same time. But everything hooks up and work with no problems whatsoever so far. It's a really good starter receiver and a powerful one at that; so if you have thoughts about getting it, do it.
Excellent receiver (NOT "HOME THEATER IN A BOX"), (What's this?) I've found some mixed information for this product online, some key things to note: this is an updated version of the HW-C700 as far as I can tell, and they apparently took into consideration some customer feedback by including an on-screen menu (even in HDMI, although it doesn't overlay the picture, it just temporarily blacks out the video to display on your TV), and including 1080p upconversion which was previously just on the more expensive models. I'm assuming that they probably also fixed some of the common complaint areas from the previous model.
This was just installed yesterday, so I can't comment on the reliability, but it seems like a solid value so far. This was an upgrade over an older receiver, so the array of HDMI inputs and video routing is a welcome improvement. There's also a "3D" sound feature that is impressive to say the least - I can't even quite describe what it does other than to say that it significantly improves the average surround sound experience (like watching TV, etc.), with this feature any encoding sounds at least as good as only the best encoded DVD/BD that I've ever heard. The auto setup feature also seems to work well (includes a small microphone that you place in your listening position, and it runs through a set of test tones to preset all of the appropriate settings.)
My only small complaint is that my DirecTV remote doesn't seem to be able to control it.
Cant beat this!!!!, (What's this?) This is one of the best deals and purchases I have made in awhile. I currently have the a 5.1 speaker setup (orgionally a 7.1 system but due to the shape of the room decided for now I would hold off). It comes with ipod dock, mic for auto configure, and of course samsungs remote. The only downside (not really one at all) is the time it takes to switch between hdmi sources is a little slow. The on screen setup is simple and easy but allows you to do just enough to make everything sound right.
