Customer Review: Re-recordings
Sadly this CD fails to live up to expectations. After receiving the CD, it emerges that 15 of the 18 tracks are not originals, but re-recordings. Yes, the CD is cheap, but the original recordings should have been used, or alternatively, a clear notice on the front of the CD cover, or in the track listings an indication that these are not the originals. Very disappointed.
Customer Review: Not for me.!
I don’t normally buy re-recorded stuff so when I saw the small print stating just that it was taken to the charity shop. Some people are obviously easily pleased by this standard of disc,I am not though. Once bitten as they say.!!

5.1 Dolby Digital PS2 Speaker System Customer Review: Very Good Value For Money
After reading a couple of reviews on this website i thought i would get these speakers. I am i glad that i did! Not only does it improve the quality of the gaming it drowns out the noise of the fan, which is brilliant when watching DVD’s - but make sure to set the DVD function to play it in Dolby Digital to get the top quality out of the speakers. The bass on it is superb as you can feel the vibrations, its just like going to the cinemas. A definate not only for true gamers but for anyone that wants top quality sound.
Customer Review: Pretty Damn Good!
If you think this system it a lot of money to spend just on speakers, don’t! This system is - ? for ? - by far the best value system I’ve seen. It features an impressive Dolby Digital decoder unit; supporting both Digital Co-Axial and Optical inputs (cables for both are included - a miracle in itself); enabling further upgrading of the system via the use of a separate decoder with digital out, and a 3.5mm Jack input for use with Stereo systems; giving full Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.
I’d spent all my time searching for a low priced system for use with my DVD player and the price of this caused me to be skeptical before buying. However, as soon as I got the thing home I was reassured completely. The subwoofer boasts an impressive punch to its bass and the satellites position effects definitively and naturally. When testing it on the musical soundtrack to “Almost Famous” it proved its groove, and against the high pace action of “Face/Off” it coped equally well.
When setting it up an entire 10 minutes was consumed. Everything slots into place and the RCA connections between speakers take away the fiddly speaker wire antics from standard systems. Another benefit is the interchangable speaker grills; you have two colours to choose from, Silver or Black - Pictured above.
Problem one - for most - will be the absense of a 3.5mm jack to 2 RCA cable in the package. If you’re planning on using the system for Pro Logic from a stereo source (Nicam TV/VCR, Hi Fi System etc) you’ll need to buy one of these. But don’t panic they’re reasonably priced, although they may be difficult to find.
Problem two - for me - was that with music the sound occasionally lacked treble and you can’t tweak it yourself so if you’ve got the money spare, I’d suggest buying a graphic equaliser and coupling it with the decoder unit.
The petit two problems aside - for this money who cares anyway? This is a top notch system, and one I have no regrets with buying.
