Great for small places

by suilobo , Mar 03 '02
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.

First the drawbacks (in case any...

after a year, and still loving it

by spoon805 , Jun 10 '01
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...

Pros: All-in one package, great price, good sound, nice features, Sony quality

Great Brand, Bad Concept

by soupcraze Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, May 04 '01
Pros: Easy To Use, All-In-One System, Internal DTS
Cons: Weak Bass, Poorer Quality Speakers, Cooling Flaws
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,...

Super Sound Sony

by MichaelHatton Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Apr 19 '01
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....

Wow! Performance, Price, and Looks! It's got it all!

by ebayshopaholic , Apr 08 '01
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...

Sony DAV-S300 -- If You Need Home Theater Cheap, Simple, and Tiny

by radioguy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Mar 23 '01
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...

Wonderful for apartment life

by teknomage , Mar 22 '01
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...

A great package!

by LJR , Mar 18 '01
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,...

Best Sound For Your Dollar

by krazyd , Feb 04 '01
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...

Sweet!!

by maestro2002 , Jan 06 '01
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...

Decent little unit

by skex , Jan 05 '01
Pros: Compact
Cons: No Aux audio inputs.
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.

Positive factors. Primarily the all in...

Compact but Mighty!

by pianoboy , Jan 03 '01
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...

Just Amazing...

by joan.coll , Jan 01 '01
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...
