Digital camera reviews of Sony BRAVIA DAV-HDX589W 5.1-Channel Theater System (Black)
Digital camera Review: Don't waste your time
Summary: 1 Stars
I had high expectations for this product. No wires hey great! What a piece of junk. I can't hold a wireless signal to the rear speakers for more than a few minutes. I'm getting vertigo from the sound dropping. Sony was no help. I guess if you live in a rural area with no neighbors close by the 2.4GHz signal is okay as long as you have no other cordless phones or wireless routers using that band. I live in an apartment building and I think cordless phones may be adding to if not creating the problem. I have always been a Sony fan but I wasted my money on this one. I've burned more than the cost of it just trying to get it to work reliably. It just doesn't seem to be able to swap channels very well on the 2.4GHz band. My advice is go wired for this application....Digital camera Review: Easy set-up

I've been using my 589W for about three weeks. The wireless is crystal clear, no problems with other wireless networks and other devices in the house degrading sound. Mine is connected to a Toshiba REGZA ClearScan 240 47ZV650U. Image and sound from DVD is great, TV to receiver the same. Really easy to set up, the speaker auto configure mic is fast and easy, still lots of manual control to personalize.
The receiver's remote is for the Sony only and can not be programmed to control the TV, however, both the cable box universal remote and Toshiba REGZA link had no problem controlling the Sony equipment. So by menu selection, the Toshiba starts, controls and shuts down the Sony receiver.
Digital camera Review: Easy to use, great value

I am so pleased with this unit. I needed to replace a high end JVC receiver which never seemed to meet my needs so I actually "downgraded" to the Sony. What a pleasant surprise. Very easy to set up and the sound quality was excellent. I incorporated a couple of my older speakers and had the whole thing set up in about an hour. Now I have a system that gives me the capability of understanding what actors are saying in movies plus terrific music sound from my Ipod Touch.
