No
The Bottom Line:
Do not buy this product. It has a faulty design and Samsung is not standing behind it.
We bought our Samsung HT-DB600 Theatre System because it is a Samsung product. We own three Samsung DLP TVs and love them all - fantastic displays and no problems. We also liked the DB600 Theatre System's compact size, low profile and sleek appearance. We installed it in our bedroom and wall mounted the small speakers. It was functional for this purpose, relatively unobtrusive and had good surround sound...while it worked. BUT it has been used less than 30 hours and now powers off immediately and displays the dreaded "Protection" message. Samsung says it's overheating and it is out of warranty. How does a receiver/DVD player overheat while turned off? We had not used it in several days, then turned it on and it turned itself off for "Protection". Who wants to pay $150 + shipping for repairs to a faulty product to likely face the same problem again in the near future? If you are unfamiliar with the "Protection" message and its lack of a simple fix, just Google: Samsung HT-DB600 Protection. This is apparently a much too common problem.
Although we love our Samsung DLP TVs, we will not buy another Samsung receiver or theatre system until Samsung decides to fix this problem, stand behind their products and recall this faulty sound system .
