Pretty decent overall. as another reviewer commented you might find it too much at times and Bose has a solution for that as well. http://worldwide.bose.com/productsupport/en_us/web/solo_tv_sound_system/page.html

I used the Emotiva a-100 amplifier which is a little over $200 and it sounded great. I'm sure that the 2 channel receivers at Best Buy also should work well but are probably in the $150 and up range. You can also look up Class D amplifiers on the Internet. Some are closer to $100 and anything with 25 watts or more should suffice. Since you are using the computer, the radio on a receiver is not necessary since most stations have websites.

if she wants to save space and has the appropriate 3.5mm line in hookup on the cd player, its a decent option. it wont be as powerful, but they are nice for the price. i use it as surround sound in my studio for the tv. good luck!

If you already have speakers, get a receiver or amplifier. Amazon should have an assortment to browse.

Just ordered the Lanzar, will let you know in a couple of weeks. If it feels right try it.Price, as long as your not looking to hear it two blocks away, as long as it compliments your music, and you are happy it's right.

You will certainly be able to crank it up in a way that you can't with any dock. I've also got a TV, b-ray, cable box, and occasionally a laptop plugged into it, and they all sound terrific. It's not audiophile quality, but for normal people in normal spaces, and for the price, you can't go wrong.

Depends what you are after / personally prefer. It does not have big, encompassing sound by itself. We use it downstairs as a general purpose TV - watching the news, broadcast shows, etc...

We use a Roku box to stream content from netflix, amazon, etc. Works a charm. We also rigged a small, cheap (but very clean) amp and some good passive speakers ... No need for 5.1, so we're very happy with the stereo sound.

We have this paired with a model from onkyo. They are solid and can get a good deal on amazon. I think ours was about $250 or so.

i am not familiar with itunes, i don't use that service, but i do know that the range of formats being audio or video are adequate for an item in this price range.

I purchased one of these a couple of months ago and the sound is OK, nothing spectacular. You should be able to hear it though; so you may consider sending it back. Knowing that the sound volume isn't so great, I already had a small bluetooth speaker that I connected to this TV/DVD player and it soinds fantastic. I used a straight wire to hook up the external speaker because this player doesn't have bluetooth capabilities. You can purchase on of these speakers from Amazon at a very reasonable price, around $30. It is very small and will make a big difference in the sound performance.

For me, someone who is not tech minded or into complicated things, the 707 is fine. It's a good value if you just want to play music, and don't care if it's in alphabetical order. Does not have advanced features, so if you're looking for more in a player, this may not be for you.

Not bad for the price, but there are much better options available. These will most likely be comparable to the current sound output.I would strongly recommend something with larger speakers and more power as well. A subwoofer is also nice to have. I would highly recommend an inexpensive or used hi-fi system over computer speakers for a TV. Even something like this would be better: Logitech Speaker System Z313

I would suggest 2 way Mackies. They run for a couple hundred dollars online. Any speakers are good but those are some great ones if you're on a budget.

Try VLC, open source player. Most everything plays. No extra codecs necessary. Get the Audiodock for Duo; hear it better.

I think it sounds pretty good and would compare it to many of the sound systems of the 80s ... I get good stereo; it's dolby and digital ... I wouldn't consider this item a top of the line Audio System ... There are better sound systems around, depending on your budget ... The question is do you need a more expensive system ??? ... I have a DVD player hooked up to this and my music CDs play just fine ... The stereo and surround sound quality are pretty good especially since I hooked the satellite speakers behind the couch and the remote woofer on one side of the couch ... Visio makes more expensive systems if you are looking for more and of course, you could always by a Bose System ... My opinion is unless you are a true audiophile, this system is good enough whether you are watching an HD Movie or listening your favorite CDs ... I'm satisfied ... Hope this info is helpful?
