General Comments
Although I was initially pleased with the Philips LX3000D system, it developed an annoying habit of skipping many DVDs after about an hour's play. Sadly this was just outside the warranty, and the manufacturer just did not want to know.
The unit's cooling fan is obtrusive in quiet parts of a movie, and the sound generally is quite weak, especially compared to my replacement system (not a Philips).
May be worth a look if you can get it very, very cheap, otherwise I would steer clear.
