Pros: Nice packaging and sleek design compliment any room
Cons: Low powered bass doesn't give much punch, too unpredictable, bad quality control.

| snobrdr314's Full Review: Sony DAV-C900 Theater System |
Bought this system after seeing it in a home theater in-store setup. I liked how the components looked and was sold by the AV tech that said component pieces couldn't work better then Sony's latest. I'm beginning to think this dream will end in a cold sweat!
When the unit does work it works great. Picture quality is good, and setup of movie sound is simple. I think the remote could have been laid out better, but it does work with other Sony remotes and this is easily upgraded.
Now for the bad news:
Between spells of the DVD freezing up during movies, having to be shutoff and restarted, a remote that sometimes has a mind of it's own, the unit occasionally not recognizing DVD's and a purely underpowered subwoofer. I'd have to call this system average. I think Sony has taken advantage of their good reputation the last few years and turned out some products that perform sub-par on the market.
