The perfect mid-level Home Theater System I needed a home theater system that didn't have a DVD player (I mean who doesn't have one already) and would nicely complement my Pioneer Plasma TV. Surprisingly enough Pioneer actually had an affordable model because it dropped out the DVD / CD player and the price ended up being only 200 dollars. It's a great deal and I can't say how happy I am with the product. It's all it claims to be and set-up was a snap. It's easy to use, good looking and really matches nicely to the Pioneer TVs- HIGHLY R...

powerful, affordable, crisp sound This little box was a snap to setup. The speakers fit nicely with any room decor and the sound is, well, CLEAN. It took me less than 15 minutes to have the components plugged in and speakers wired and ready for action. The front audio jack and included mini to mini cable allowed me to test the system with my iPod before plugging in the other units.
The optical in is a must and this system has it. The dB display is a little weird as it counts down from 0, but it could be a user error...

Pretty darn good This was my first surround sound purchase, so I can only compare to TV speaker sound. Anyway, it sounds great, I never realized how much 5.1 can draw you into a movie or game. It has 3 digital inputs (which I found rare for this price range)1 fiber and 2 coax. I can crank it up loud enough to be almost uncomfortable with no distortion. Bass is real nice. Also, it has a radio tuner which I liked.
2 minor issues: The receiver is huge, alot bigger than it looked in the pictures in my o...

4.5 out of 5 First off, the sound is beautiful for the price. I previously had a cheap KOSS surround sound system, and you could hear a slight buzzing and cackling in the speakers when there was no sound. This system, however, is completely silent as far as distortion goes. The speakers and subwoofer are very sleek and sexy. The receiver looks nice, but like every other quality receiver it is quite large. I would have liked an extra optical input, but the fact that it already comes with 3 digital...

Excellent Product from a well-known brand. I got this system from pioneer directly. Being that is was the same price, it wasn't an issue.
This is my third surround sound system... but it's also the cheapest of the 3 I own. Yet I can not distinguish any difference from my high-end Onkyo, or Sony systems. It's also helpful for those seeking perfect video and opting out for an Oppo dvd player... this is great because now I dont have another useless dvd player built-in that never gets used. ;)
Overall, I love it. C...

Must own The unit for price and features can't be beaten. The system was very easy to set up. Directions was simple for the 1st time user and helpful for advanced. Given this is not my 1st pioneer system, (I've owned a car stereo) I was overall pleased with this system. The nine (9) advanced surround effects are fun to play around with, and the easy setup is a nice feature in this unit. This a must have for low budget without the low quality.

Great system Just like the person before me, I was also looking for a home theater without a dvd player. Then I found this one with great reviews. So I bought it straight from Pioneer for less than $220 with shipping and tax. Took a week to get it here with ups ground since it was coming from CA and I live in NJ. soon as i got it, I plugged it and WOW. Straight out of the box, sounds NICE!!! Can't wait till I start playing around with the settings and stuff. I would definitely recommend this system. For the...

What is the receiver's model number? This looks like a great buy but I'd like to know which receiver comes with this setup. Does anyone know the actual model number of the receiver? I can't find it on this page or even on Pioneer's page for this setup. The only number I see is HTP-2900 which is the number for the combination.
