Pros: the sound!
Cons: it has to go forward from cd #2 to CD #1
The Bottom Line: we could not be happier with out purchase!

| j_carrow's Full Review: Panasonic SC-HT700 System |
This sound system provides very clear sound! It can hold up to 5 DVDs or CDs in the system. It only has one drawer so you have to put the cds in one at a time. As I said in the cons: it has to go forward from cd #2 to CD #1 so it takes a while (some systems can go backwards from 2 to 1 and do not have to go all the way through 3, 4, and 5.)
We purchased it at Costco for $399 after looking at it in the Wiz for $499.
Panasonic is a name I trust. In fact, the guy at the Wiz said that the only 2 names he trusted (after working at the Wiz for 7 years) were Panasonic and Sony. He said the other brands have had too many problems.
It doesn't take up much space which is great. Even though it is small, the sound quality is excellent!
here's what it has:
Home Theater Receiver with Built-in 5DVD/CD Changer
4 Satellite Speakers Center Speaker Subwoofer
Total output power of 400W in Home Theater Mode (1kHz, 6 ohms, 10% THD)
Dolby®1 Digital/Dolby Pro Logic®1 available
6-ch amplifier configuration
Multi-channel sound field functions for advanced AV effects (Center, Focus, Seat Position Setting, Super Surround)
Easy-to-use universal remote control ready for many brands of TV/VCR
6 presets S.F.C. (Sound Field Control: Heavy, Live, Clear, Soft, Hall, Disco)
ENERGY STAR®: for low energy consumption
Dialogue Enhancer
27MHz/10bit video D/A converter
6-3/4” subwoofer system
CD-R/RW playback2
MP3 playback
Subwoofer on/off switch (remote control)
It comes with 5 speakers and a subwoofer. The bass sounds very good. Some systems don't come with a subwoofer. Since it comes with 5 speakers you can spread them out around your room for great sound all around!
We hooked this system up to our outdoor speakers and listen to cds or the radio while swimming in the pool or hanging out on the deck.
UPDATE: We ended up returning this system because it started not recognizing that cd's or dvd's were in the drive.
