Pros Sonic excellence. Compactness. Affordability. Ease of use.
Cons Nothing major. Some will consider the plethora of available features and settings...
Recommended it? Yes

Caveat Emptor!

Note that Sony also markets a look-alike "theater in a box" system, the HT-DDW740, for about $100 less. Why not get the cheaper model? Primarily because there's significantly less power (wattage) to the speakers, especially the subwoofer. The cheaper unit's subwoofer is... Read full review »

Does this story seem familiar?
Your at home, you have a decent TV, dvd player and a vcr. You are enjoying the tv but maybe you have the wife mowing the yard or the baby is crying and the wife isn't done in the kitchen, and so you have to turn up the volume on your tv, but darn if it just won't... Read full review »

Pros Big Power, Great Sound, Excellent format support, tons of options, great remote, great...
Cons Ummm... none, unless looks of the system are important to you.
Recommended it? Yes

This system is utterly amazing. I had an Apex HT-100W system, but was a little unsatisfied with its surround sound capabilities, or lack thereof. Anything other than Dolby Digital came only through two speakers. Anyway, I went back to Rex, got $190 store credit, and started looking around. The... Read full review »

Pros Great Bass and Crystal-clear sound,
Cons Lacks bass when using Normal Surround/2-Channel modes
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my system for over 6 months. I'm extremely satisfied with this system. I purchased this system to replace my old Magnavox MX-920 Pro Logic system. The Sony HT-DDW840 contains Pro Logic II format. It's makes for very enjoyable moments when viewing Dolby Digital DVD's. The surround sound... Read full review »

Pros Great price, easy to use, sounds great, a powered sub-woofer, lots of features,
Cons not enough digital hook-ups. No A/B speaker switch.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this around Christmas '02, so I'm familiar with this system, it's not an initial impression review.

This is a great system. It sounds great, easy to set up, has a lot of component hook-ups, unfortunately it is a bit short on the digital hook-ups. For a $350 system, you can't... Read full review »

Pros Excellent 5.1 sound, strong bass, feature packed reciever and quality speakers and sub.
Cons This unit costs more in Australia (but it is value for money)
Recommended it? Yes

This unit is a perfect solution for those wanting to have a cinema experience in their own homes, without spending vasts amounts of money. That said, I did spend $1060AUD on this system, which I wasnt so pleased about as I knew it could be had for cheaper. However, I could only find this system at... Read full review »

Pros Great sound, price.
Cons Remote is too busy.
Recommended it? Yes

I went around listening to different systems at different stores. I narrowed it down to the Sony 740 and 840. They were $100 difference in price, but I found an 840 for only
$50 more plus Best Buy was giving a $25 gift card with it, so I went for it. I have been really happy with it. The sound... Read full review »

Pros sound quality, ease of use
Cons durability
Recommended it? Yes

This system is clearly a stellar one for a person looking for a simple, high quality surround sound entertainment center for a fairly affordable price. The sound quality is good for what you pay, and features are not confusing at all. Make sure to place speakers in a place where they will not fall,... Read full review »
