Good Points

Visually, attractive. Significant effort was made "making it look good. '


Bad Points

Loud popping sounds on rear speakers (fixed after first service). Remote control failure (fixed after 2nd service). A gentle hum could be heard when powered on. The system is extremely slow and unresponsive when switching between modes or putting in a CD or DVD. Random power downs occur while watching videos and when the system is initially powered up.


General Comments

Philips Cineos HTS9800W review - Quality of design and construction is a big problem (system sent back for service twice during warranty period with lists of problems). When returning the system a third time for service (Philips had still failed to fix their annoying "feature" of the system turning itself off by itself), Philips would not honor their warranty even though the auto-turn off issue was reported and unresolved during the 1 year warranty period.
