“Fantastic system for the price”
Written on: 27/10/2011
Not too expensive. Bought from Walmart, and have been very happy with it. Obviously not a super high-end system, but sounds great in my living room (about 14 feet by 12 feet) and didn't break the bank. Nice bass, and decent inputs. All the wires are colour-coded as well, so you can't screw up the installation by putting the wrong wires in the wrong spots :) (read more)

“Unbelievable bass response for the size of the unit,...”
Written on: 06/12/2008
Unbelievable bass response for the size of the unit, remote has separate vol controls for each set of speakers which allows balancing between all the directions and bass level in relation to rest of system, great value for price.
I haven't found a better sounding system for triple the price. Its nice to have everything (amp speakers and controls) in one small unit.

I bought this set from Walmart over 3 years ago for $30....unfortunately they don't sell this product any longer, but if you have a chance to pick up a set and can verify it works before hand, I would jump at the chance.....they are good speakers for a low low price. Mine have laster over 3 years and through 3 moves without incident. They don't put out true surround sound, but they work well enough for my purposes....then again, I'm not an audiophile like some. I just really want to... (read more)

Written on: 12/02/2008
I bought my system just under 5 years ago for £30 and it has lasted me through college and university, and now home. It has an amazingly good sound quality, especially for the price, and I love it to bits. I've hooked it up to my DVD, T.V combi, Freeview, Playstation2 and my laptop, and all works brilliantly. My left rear satellite speaker stopped working this weekend so I'm gonna see if I can fix it- but to be quite honest I'm not that bothered about it breaking as it has given me 5 years... (read more)

OK well... the first one I got the remote stopped working for no apparent reason and I could not press the buttons, and after a while I couldn't even turn it on, so I got a new one and I have had it for about a year now and have had not a single problem from it, *knock on wood* but I am pleased to say I am in love with my Durabrand surround sound system, though I cannot hook up digital audio and other things like that I still enjoy watching movies, crankin up music and just watchin south...

Written on: 11/10/2006 by gaznkaz
I have now owned two of these Durabrand Home Cinema Surround Sound systems in the last year and both have failed on me, for no apparent reason. On the first, one of the satellite speakers failed to work and on the second, the bass unit stopped working.
Although initially good value for money and quite good sound, it seems they are not very reliable.

Written on: 08/03/2006 by pcclones (1 review written)
I got my Durabrand Home Cinema Surround Sound speakers going within 30 minutes of opening the box.
The sound is a good deep bass without boom. The treble highs are good, and if you use brackets the speakers perform well.
They remind me of the old Wharfdale's that I had as a teenager, and have still got.
There is also a very good manual included.

Written on: 16/08/2005 by BAHMJP (4 reviews written)
About 18 months ago I changed from an old but advanced top-of-the-range Philips television to a Loewe Aconda model. While the Loewe outshone the Philips in nearly all departments one feature of the Philips which I missed was the rear speaker option and for some time I have been seeking a simple amplifier to power additional speakers from the Loewe audio output terminals. I found it in, of all places, a large branch of Tesco at a cost of £35. It is called the Durabrand Home Cinema Surround... (read more)

Just bought this unit from Asda, £29.97!!! Set it up last evening and watched the football, sounded good to me. DVD packed up last night so could not test it out fully, need to test it with a film like Saving Private Ryan to fully appreciate the unit, but for £29.97 it's already a bargain.

The reviewer is mistaken- It is from Asda, not Tesco, as it is a asda own brand and not available anywhere else. The price is indeed £35 however!- just thought i'd point this out to anyone after one!
