Pros: sleek & stylish, simple, ideal for small room, Dolby Digital & DTS Cons: no component out, not for audiophiles
If you're reading this review then you've done more research into home-theatre-in-a-box systems than I did before purchasing the Sony DAV-S300. Can't really say I regret getting this particular system though.
Pros: sleek, compact, great value, rich and accurate sound, good video Cons: lose the remote = lose 75% of the functions, minor decoding bugs
This system has a lot to offer for the price you pay.
The video is good, and the the audio is very competitive with other receivers. When I play DTS dvds, this system really shines. The entire audio spectrum is played very well and...
The Sony DAV-S300 is an all-in-one system from Sony. The Sony DAV-S300 includes a DVD/CD player, with a reciever/amplifier. This isn't like other home theater systems. Most home theater systems use recievers that don't have built in DVD or CD players,...
Pros: Excellent movie performance, in both picture and sound; small unit; DTS & DD 5.1; radio Cons: Distortions at peak volume level.
If you think a home cinema costs £1000 plus, think again. This Sony DAV-S300 includes everything you need for home cinema. When I first got this I was very impressed, the first DVD I ran of it gave sharp vibrant images, and plenty of options for DVD's....
Pros: Excellent system for an excellent price! Many more features than I expected. Great Sound! Cons: The set-up is very high tech but once you know how it's a cinch.
Excellent system for an excellent price! Many more features than I expected. Great Sound! Excellent remote; you don't need to stand up for much more than to change the CD/DVD with this one! The remote control "opens" to display specialty buttons so...
Pros: Relatively easy to set up. Very compact. Cons: Really small, cheap speakers. Low amp power. Not the best audio performance.
If you want a home-theater surround-sound audio system but the thought of connecting a DVD player to an A/V receiver intimidates you, then Sony's got the perfect product for you. With the DAV-S300 "DVD Dream System," the DVD player and the A/V receiver...
Pros: Stylish sleek sliver box, great sound, easy setup. Cons: Could use more power for speakers.
About 2 months ago I was looking for a DVD surround sound system for my apartment (since my roommate moved out and took all of his stuff) when I came across the DAV-S300. At first I was really attracted to the small silver box purely for its looks but...
Pros: Price, look, features, useful remote. Cons: No separate bass / treble controls.
I initially began shopping for a DVD player to replace the good ol' VCR. The more I read and spoke to people, it seemed that a tuner with surround capabilities was the way to go. I began looking at the usual places (Good Guys, Best Buy, Circuit City,...
Pros: all there in one box minimalist dream Cons: no cdr's
I had people say to me that must be a powered sub...it sounds to good not be.
Well people it isn't and it sounds great...I have mine in a large room 24x16 and it the DAV-S300 fills it up with sound like the large towers and 300 watt stereo it...
Pros: Sleak and stylish design and interface. Very easy to use and operate. Cons: Needs alittle more wattage.
When I was getting ready to order my new television (Sony Trinition Wega), I wanted to add a killer home theater to it but the cost of the television was going to be leaving me short on the cash. I was looking for something with performance, power and...
Pros: Price, simplicity, flexibility, sound quality Cons: No active subwoofer, limited speaker-level adjustment.
>>Why did you buy this product?
I didn't. I got it as a Christmas present. But I got it as a Christmas present because I wanted a home stereo system with a DTS decoder for DVD watching. My 10-year-old Aiwa mini-system just wasn't...
I purchased this system initially because I decided that it was time to take the DVD plunge. I'm actually returning it but not because of dissatisfaction with the quality, it just won't do what I need.
Pros: Great price, compact unit, great sound/picture. Cons: All-in-one unit, not upgradable.
I NEVER thought I would buy an all-in-one system. That was, until I realized I did not want a big, unsightly rig in my small Manhattan apartment. I really wanted to eliminate the multiple components and the stand I required to house them, but wanted a...
Pros: All-in-one system with a little size, DTS and a great price Cons: Lack of input/outputs.
A month ago, when I begun to look some home theater packages, I started looking at some big systems like Onkyo, Pioneer and Yamaha, all composed by the DVD reader, the AV receiver and the kit of high speakers. I asked for some demos of this devices, and...
