Excellent so far for the price. I used this to replace a sound bar in my bedroom that quit working. I decided I wanted to be able to listen to music as well in my bedroom and I tried a few other sound bars and just wasn't satisfied with the sound for music. I bought this system and replaced the front speakers with some Sony SSCS5 speakers that I bought for $75 and this configuration sounds really good in my bedroom.

Really good value

Excellent value for the price. I purchased a few sound bars (even a Samsung @ $800 and wasn't satisfied with the sound when playing music. They were fine for TV and movies but I listen to music in my bedroom as well. So I decided to give this one a shot and have not been disappointed. I knew the 2 front speakers were probably not going to be sufficient for 2 channel music so I knew up front I would be replacing them with some Sony SSCS5 bookshelf speakers that I already have. This setup with the Sony speakers sound really good. The Sony speakers are probably the best value for any small bookshelf speakers on the planet right now.

Really good so far. It has very good quality video and audio. It is pretty minimalist as far as using it a a media player. I think it only has 4 built in apps and you can't install new ones. I think maybe Sony is realizing that is not what people use blu-ray players for anyway.

The T30 is the center channel speaker that puts its overpriced competitors to shame. Since the center channel is the most important speaker in your Home audio system, the T30 is the workhorse that delivers crystal-clear dialogue and room-filling theater sound. What~s more, it~s easy to setup, supports Dolby and DTS, and connects to most Home theater receivers, stereos or Home theater processors. Put the T30 center channel to the test and you'll hear how it rings true-in price and quality. Built for more than your viewing pleasure, the T Series hits the mark on great-sounding audio for all the music that fills your life. Don't fret, we'll pat ourselves on the back for you.

Enjoy wireless music playback from smartphones or other mobile devices with this Yamaha Hi-Fi stereo receiver. It has a handy speaker selector for switching between the sound output terminals, and it uses Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. A power management feature on this Yamaha stereo receiver shuts it down automatically when the receiver is not being used.

Great power and amazing clarity!
By WAZZUcoug
I bought a Klipsch R-125W last Black Friday and have been using it on my home theater surround system in my man cave. It was way too much for there, but I kept it there until today. I bought Polk TSi200 speakers two days ago for use in my home office, where my wife and I both work. The amplifier I was using just wasn't powerful enough for those Polk speakers so the last two days I have been doing a ton of research for an affordable yet powerful and clean amp/receiver. I convinced my wife that I would pull up the Klipsch sub from my man cave if we could get a better receiver for the office. Tonight we went to Best Buy and bought this receiver. I got home and hooked it up to the sub and two bookshelf speakers and WOW!!! Literally I have to keep the gain on the sub way down and not turn up the bass on this receiver. The Polk speakers sound amazing and I hear things in songs I haven't heard before. The sub pounds crazy loud if/when I want it to. We are running it through Bluetooth to one of our PC's that is using a common music streaming service and it sounds AMAZING!!! If you just need 2 to 4 speakers and a sub then this is flat out the best bang for the buck I could find and am so glad the wife said yes!

Sorry John, didn't mean to click unhelpful on yours I meant to on his reply because he didn't answer the question. I'm also curious how he hooked up a subwoofer.

Get wireless surround sound with this Rocketfish wireless rear speaker kit. The wireless sender and receiver transmit high-quality audio from your home theater receiver to your rear speakers over a radio frequency communication link. This Rocketfish wireless rear speaker kit is easy to set up and gives you surround sound without the tangle of cables.
 

Can I buy 2 kits, & connect 1 base to the left rear speaker terminal and 1 to the right on my amp, with corresponding receiver attached to each surround? Don't want to run long wires from the receiver to the 2 surround speakers on either side of room.

I don't have that setup but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I think it will work. So far this thing works great. No noticeable delay.
