Rockville HTS56 1000W 5.1 Channel Home Theater System, Bluetooth, USB, 8" Subwoofer, LED Light Effects, Remote Control, Optical Input, for Movies, Music & Karaoke

TLDR: If you have a couple hundred bucks and want a starter-level home theater system that will help you figure out what you want in a future, high-quality theater system, definitely pick this up. Buy a DAC to go with it, too. Throw the whole thing in a man-cave after it's outlived its usefulness. Nice system for the price, but it belongs in a man-cave or office, not as a real theater setup like I intended it for in the living room. I expected this going in, based on other reviews, so I have no regrets about this purchase. I bought it because I have never had a theater system, and have never been to someone's house that had one, so this was my first experience with using anything related to "surround sound" and I wanted to use this as a learning experience. Pros: It's loud. Very loud. So loud that I'm sure my neighbors knew when I had installed it. Simple to setup. Pretty straightforward to use. Great for watching TV and most movies (more on this soon). Cons: The fidelity of the speakers is not amazing, which is what I expected for the price and why I would not use this system to listen to music. The lack of fidelity is very noticeable on music, but I would say hardly noticeable (if at all) when watching most movies/TV. The primary drawback, for me, was its inability to decode digital 5.1 signal, and why I say MOST movies/TV. It will ACCEPT digital signal through SPDIF, but can only read PCM encoding (which carries 2.1 instead of 5.1). It cannot decode actual surround sound signal. It can only decode left, right, and subwoofer (the 2.1 signal), and this is a best-guess scenario when the audio is downgraded from 5.1/7.1 to 2.1. So most of the time it's fine, but some soundtracks end up very... odd. Like for Justice League, the music was extremely quiet most of the time, while dialogue, explosions, and everything else sounded great. Still watchable, but very jarring. RECCOMENDED TO GO WITH IT: I bought a $40 DAC (digital audio convertor) to decode the SPDIF 5.1 channels to 6 RCA plugs, and plugged those into the theater system. Real 5.1 surround sound achieved. Jank workaround, but everything sounds SO much nicer.

I'm loving this. I was using a jerry rigged surround sound, and I've never used actual surround so this, this is incredible. First things first setting up was so incredibly simple. Part of that is the incredible length wire that's provided for the rear speakers. I measured (badly) and thought the location I'd have to place them would be meh, however, they were plenty long to reach the back of the room. I have full room coverage. I thought this was going to take me hours to set up. I think I had it set up and done within fourty-five minutes. It could've been shorter, but I used different wall mounts than the ones it came with. I don't have everything I need to set up correctly, namely a level and this system still sounds wonderful. Second, volume... be careful with this beast. I always test my sound systems (car, computer, etc) and playing from BT some decent songs, I could hear this on the road. So if you live in a city that doesn't put up with so called Noise Pollution, or neighbours who are delicately put- dick wads, get a less worthy system. The remote is part of the review, and it's simple and easy to use, no complaints at all. Overall, vaule for money, while I've only had for a few hours now (will update eventually) I'd have to say this is the best $150ish I've spent in a very long time. Update- I've have this surround system for about two years now. It's still as clear as the day I bought it. There've been times I thought it was going out, only to discover it was from the source audio, not the speakers. I had the led lights unplugged for the longest time, but having them on really can add a sort of theather setting lighting. It would be nice if there was a dimmable function for them, however, if found too bright it's easy to unplug. I can't comment on the remote as it's been long since destroyed via my children. For the $150ish I spent on this, it has absolutely been worth it. Overall... Complete satisifaction.

Showed up early, packaged was great. Hooking up the system was very easy. Plug and play, that easy. I also got wall mounts for the speakers and they work great with it. The surround is great in my rec room. It was easy to adjust each speaker to the level I wanted and now my rec room sounds like a sports bar.

Love this stereo sounds awesome, love the lights on the speakers, cannot speak for longevity as I just purchased not long ago but happy with it so far awesome bass

The Rockville HTS56 1000w 5.1 Channel Home Theater System is an awesome setup for anyone looking to elevate their TV and movie-watching experience without breaking the bank. It’s super easy to set up, which is a huge plus, and it delivers great sound quality that really makes your TV pop. The built-in lights are such a fun touch, adding a cool visual vibe to your room. I love that the subwoofer has an EQ that syncs with the lights—it’s a little detail, but it makes the whole system feel more dynamic and exciting. For the price, you honestly can’t go wrong. It’s simple, works great, and adds a ton of value to your entertainment setup. I’ve got no complaints—this was a fantastic buy, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, budget-friendly home theater system.

Le son ne sort pas correctement et la lecture avec USB est au ralenti et se plante , la lecture par bluethooth est de très bas volume

It is exactly as promised easy setup awesome loud sound and good bass, I don't regret buying this sound system, the thing was the slow shipping it took almost 3 weeks to get it but it was worth the wait so just buy it don't think about it just do it 😀
