Pros: decent sound, good picture, easy installation, sleek design
Cons: lots of them...read the review to see
The Bottom Line: all in all i wish i hadn't bought this dvd player, mainly on the basis it wont play all disk formats and the price. BUT im proud to own one.

| swjhanson777's Full Review: Sony DAV-S300 Theater System |
ive had this dvd player now for around 5 months, and the main reason i bought the dvd player is because i like the best! and at the time of buying this dvd player was amongst the best available...or so i thought...
the sound is great, i used to have a dolby pro logic system but this beats it hands down, although on a minor point the speakers are incredibly small. infact they are too small for speaker stands that i could find in my local town.
the picture quality is great too, but seeing as this is my 1st dvd player i have no standards to judge from all except VHS, which is easily beaten.
the controls and remote control can be slightly confusing as there are sooo many different settings, although some people like that kinda stuff.
the system itself is very stylish and sleek, but what very very dissapointing is the fact that it wont play cdr disks or any other disk other than the original. which means all them copies and favourite compilations ive made on the pc will not work with this system. it also will only play my region dvd. ive been told that this can be fixed so i can play all region disks but why should i? when there are dvd's out at the moment costing a hell of a lot less than mine that will play any disk that you throw at it. including cdr, cdrw, all region dvd's and etc..etc..etc
the price i think is over the top, i should really have bought a different dvd player for the money i paid for this. its quality made but there are little niggling cheapy things that make it to costly. incidently ive had to return the woofer which had become faulty and made a buzzing noise whilst producing high levels of bass.
