OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
The JVC Sophisti DD3 Network Home Theater System expands your entertainment options dramatically by connecting to your LAN or WAN to offer you instant access to your computer's digital media libraries. This brilliant system includes a full-featured receiver with an integrated 720p upconverting DVD player, a direct-drive center speaker with subwoofer, and stand-mounted left and right front speakers.

Your video will look crisp and bright, and your audio will sound stunning, and you won't have to hassle with mounting rear speakers! Whether you're in the mood for some MP3 or CD music; DivX or DVD movies; or a photo slideshow from your thumb drive, computer library, or directly from the camera (with up-conversion!), Sophisti has it covered. The HDMI output sends near-lossless signal to your HDTV and speakers, so you can enjoy every note and take in every colorful nuance.

The 3.1-channel output is cleverly distributed among the speakers to give you virtual surround performance. You've put a lot of time and effort into your digital music, photo, and video libraries; wouldn't you like to be enjoying them life-sized on your home theater system?

Worth the Deal

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very stylish and sleak looking. Sound is very clear and easy to understand. The remote is actually fairly easy to use (although there are a lot of buttons on it). Easy to setup and easy to place speakers in locations for small-medium rooms. This is not a system you would want for a large room most likely, however, it is perfect for a small room. On sale price for this is an absolute steal and if you buy it for a price like Newegg is offering at 200$ with shipping, there will be no regrets at all. Perfect for those on a budget but want a quality sound system after they splurged on a very nice TV :).

I am not that tech savy (I am not clueless by no means, just not extremely talented with technology). However, this system is easy to use and has a wide arrange of things you are able to do with it. VERY VERY recommended on the 200$ price as of now. Take while you can get, you will not regret it.
Cons: From what I can tell I cannot get them to go as loud as I want. I haven't played with them that much, however, it does not "bump" as much as I would want.. but I think it could be only for certain situations (like old DVDs) that the volume will not blast. However, I was able to plug in my laptop into the home theater system and it played pretty well.

The 3.1 "Simulated 5.1" system is clearly not as good as a 5.1 system... however the speakers have crystal clear sound and I feel like a smart-system that adjusts certain sounds to amplify importance (at least that is what happened when I watched a DvD of the temptations)
Other Thoughts: Overall, you are not going to get a better deal for 200$. I looked around for a good deal on an entertainment system and this one is by far not a bad choice. Experts rate it a 65/100 and users rate it 87/100 which gave it an overall rating of 90/100 rated as excellent according to one product review site. The amount of things you are able to do with this system for the price is unmatched. Jump on this before the deal goes away!! You will not regret it.

(Perfect for Frat house situations because you are able to connect the main unit to your router and access your server to play movies and all kinds of cool features)

Highly Highly Recommended. Just buy this right now if you want a steal on an item.

sounds good but featureless

white Reviewed By: squared on 1/17/2009
Rating + 2
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: The sound is pretty good.
Cons: Two analog audio inputs, one on the front which is useless if you don't want to see wires running into the unit.
Other Thoughts: Maybe I'm new to home theatre systems, but there doesn't seem to be much here for the $800 list price. My assessment is it's about $200 worth. A great stereo system and DVD player would do more for less money. It is network capable, but I'm don't consider that enough to justify the price.

Pros: For the money (199) this is a great system. The sound fills up a small room.
Cons: It is only pass through for video. You'll need Toslink cables to get the max out of this little jewel. Oh, the DVD player has very poor video resolution.

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Small Speakers. No wires to the rear
Cons: Surround sound pretty good. Not as good as the old Aiwa system i had years ago that had the same concept of virtual surround. No seperate on off button for bass/subwoofer unit.
Other Thoughts: Aiwa isn't around any more as far as i know. This system is pretty good. Maybe i just haven't figured out how to optimized the sound yet. Bass unit is great for the size of my room which is a pretty decent size. About the size of a typical loft in the city. Pretty good boom. I'm no audiophile but i love the sound of the system. Buy it if they still sell it.
