Customer Review: DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT!
In the beginning I thought it was the best thing since sliced bread, color coded, easy to set up and a good starter HT System with ok sound. But that soon changed. Three or four months after I had the unit, CD's & DVD's wouldn't load. I would open/eject a few times and they would eventually load. But then it just stopped loading altogether and it would display "disk error". I called support and was told that it must be the quality of the CD or DVD. I was told to get a disk cleaner. I sent them the unit and now we are going back and forth that it's now not under warranty! This product is a LEMON! I wish I had seen all the other reviews out there telling of this major issue! Samsung should recall this product!
Customer Review: Nice, bit I have an issue
I agree with all the positive reviews here, the sounds is nice. I did notive an improvement in the picture with progressive scan with the component cables. I have a JVC 52" rear projection HDTV. However, there is a glitch in the progressive scan, I'm not sure how to describe it, but it seems to glitch/freeze/spaz for a split second. Not sure what is going on, might be the TV, but progressive scan works fine with my Gamecube.
