The Samsung HT-Z520 DVD home theater system puts you in the center of the action. A foursome of compact satellites speakers, a center speaker, and a booming subwoofer deliver 1,200 watts of audio power through 5.1 channels, giving you full, rich sound. It's even Satellite radio-ready; just add your antenna and subscription!
The 1080p-upconverting 5-DVD changer eliminates blur or distortion, and brings new realism to your DVD and DivX movies. With Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS decoders onboard and the brilliant clarity of HDMI output you get stunning video and audio from all your media.
The USB port offers you plug and play convenience for your MP3 player, thumb drive, or digital camera, and the receiver features a built-in iPod dock. The HT-Z520 brings you all the joy of going to the theater, without sitting next to Chatty Cathy and her date, Mr. Text Message Junkie!
Cons: Limited inputs for devices, HDMI is video only (no audio), weak sub-woofer (not powered).
Other Thoughts: I knew going into this purchase that this system has only one aux in, using a digital audio in I was able to get sound from my Samsung TV to this unit. I also knew that the sub-woofer wasn't powered, so it was be a little weaker (no rattling windows unless the voulme is up LOUD!).
With those two drawbacks in mind, I purchased this system anyway. The rear wireless speakers worked out of the box, no problems there. My Samsung LCD TV was able to use the Anynet +, I can now run the DVD player through the TV with one remote.
This system is a spacesaver, looks great and sounds great. And I purchased it for less than one of the bigger b&m big box store was charging for the Z420 (and I got free shipping!!!).
It wont put a $1000 system to shame, but it wont embarass you either.

Pros: Quality product! Easy use/setup. Wireless receiver for rear spkrs (spkrs wired to rcvr) 5 disc changer, IPOD hook up... Definitely cranks loud enough in my home, can here it clearly through the kitchen windows 40 feet away, outside on the patio!
Cons: Can't seem to find music shuffle, haven't found to many other issues yet.
Other Thoughts: I'm a simple man; it plays dvd's, cd's and sound good. Great for the regular household that doesn't want to spend a huge amount of money!

Pros: Ok so I don't own this product but Wanted to let anybody who is looking at buying this or anyother samsung home audio device or dvd player of any kind. USE A SAMSUNG TV WITH SAMSUNG AUDIO OR DVD PLAYERS. It has a feature called Wise link. On the box its called BD-Wise. This allows the TV to pass Audio back to the Audio system. AKA you plug in your PS3 XBOX360 and blah blah blah and the Samsung TV will pass back the audio to the surround sound. ONLY IF THEY ARE BOTH SAMSUNG BRAND AND ARE BD-WISE. Mos major brands do this with their equipment. So if you get a sony panasonic or samsung tv. Get the same brand of dvd player blueray play and audio system.
Cons: None. I love samsung.

Pros: So I got this for a friend/client to put in his den with his new LCD TV and am amazed at the build quality and features of this package!!! Very nice piece of equipment for the money! The rear wireless speakers were a snap to install, the ipod adapter works great, helpful on-screen info, just nice stuff!!!!
Cons: Powered sub would have been the crowning achievment but still sounds O.K , especially for the 40 & older crowd!!! Hip hop fans need not apply as the sub will get muddy with the likes of Lil Wayne or T.I. One could always ADD a powerd sub and then I don't think to much could touch this unit for the $$.
Other Thoughts: Samsung has come a long way!! Remember when it was K-Mart only merchandise?!?!
