This review is from: Onkyo HT-S3500 5.1-Channel Home Theater Speaker/Receiver Package (Electronics)

Update 5/8/12: I've now moved into my new house and have this system set up and wall mounted. A few things: -Attaching these speakers using mounts is a pain. They only have a keyhole mounting option, and the mount set I bought which said it was compatible with keyhole speakers did not work. I had to buy some additional nuts and washers to get it to attach. I decided to only mount the rear speakers with the mounts, and have the front speakers hanging on wall screws. Mounting directly to the wall with screws actually works pretty well though. I attached some adhesive felt pads to the back of the speakers to eliminate any possible vibration against the wall. -The ozone smell I mentioned initially is mostly gone. -Low volume listening is still a bit of a pain. I find myself upping the center channel to make the voices stand out more late at night when the wife is asleep. The sound is great at higher volumes, though. -Edit- I fixed the low hum, it was a...

This review is from: Onkyo HT-S3500 5.1-Channel Home Theater Speaker/Receiver Package (Electronics)

I bought the HT-3400 last year and it is virtually identical to this one. I had an initial failure within 3 days and had to get it replaced and so far this one is working, however Onkyo's quality is nowhere what it used to be. I liked the set up in the beginning because it was such an improvement over the tiny speakers that came with my TV, however over time I came to realize that much was lacking. What was lacking was a direct result of the low-end speakers that came with the system. It is difficult to expect 3 1/4 inch speakers to reproduce a lot of high quality sound. Even though they're listed as having a frequency response of 80 - 20 KHz they don't mention being measured at + or - 3 Db, which is the commonly accepted standard. I ended up replacing everything except the receiver and sub woofer. Obviously money was a concern

or I wouldn't have bought a HTIB in the first place, but now that I have Sony SS-F6000 towers in the front, and BIC DV62Si's for surrounds (great... Read more

Great entry level HT system, May 2, 2012 By Mike - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase (What's this?) This review is from: Onkyo HT-S3500 5.1-Channel Home Theater Speaker/Receiver Package (Electronics)

I bought this a few days ago while it was $280. I received it yesterday and set it up. So far, I am very happy with this system. For the price, you can't go wrong. I really like the Iphone/Ipod support. You can control your music with the remote as well as see the songs/albums/etc on the receiver. It also charges through the USB. One thing to note is that the receiver gets hot. I have mine located in an entertainment center cabinet, so I keep the doors open while it is on. I think I will also buy a little fan to get some airflow just to be on the safe side. I cannot speak for reliability yet, as I have only had it for 1 day, but I will try to update my review once I have owned it for a while. Pros: -Great sound quality -USB input -Easy set up Cons: -No conversion to HDMI from composite and component. You must wire each type up to the tv separately. -Speaker wire is very light gauge, but it works and you can easily buy your... Read more
