Title: Great for the price
Review: 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.

Title: Be careful with the adjustments!
Review: I read all the reviews before buying the Rockville stereo, they all seemed to be outstanding reviews so I had to give this stereo a chance. I mainly purchased this stereo because I wanted to update the older Bose stereo I have with a more modern on which is bluetooth capable because I listen to Apple music almost constantly and hated that I couldn't play it on my stereo, granted this Rockville stereo is no way close to being a Bose. When it arrived the very first thing I noticed that I was disappointed about was the center speaker, I thought it would be longer and was disability because I wanted it laying in front of my television, to be honest all of the speakers are shorter then I thought they would be. Taking into consideration that all the speakers only have two 3 inch speakers in them other then the 8 inch subwoofer, it does in fact sound fairly good, unless you go in turning up each individual speaker as they distort and rattle. I seen several reviews saying there is absolutely no distortion or rattling but there can be depending on how you set it and the remote control is pretty confusing for a simple, cheap stereo system. The led lights on the speakers and main body are probably pretty cool to most people but I myself find them annoying, the led lights on the main body have a variety of settings but the speakers themselves only have one setting and can not be turned off. The only other thing about this stereo that I really do not care for is that the subwoofer is actually in the main body of the stereo, so if you have the stereo body on a table or bookshelf, anything sitting on there with it will rattle around and can fall off. There is some bass with this stereo, it is not superb but it is actually very good for a cheaper stereo system. Another annoying feature of this stereo is when it is shut off, there are two red lines that constantly blink where the screen is on the main body, I have no idea why they thought this would be a good idea, I mean when the stereo is off, it should remain off. The main body also has a knob on it with some stereo control features, it is very basic and doesn't control to much at all of what this stereo can do. In order to use all of the stereo functions you need to use the remote, so if you misplace the remote or if the remote is damaged then you won't be able to use most of the control features. Being able to adjust all of the speakers individually is very nice, that way if from where you are sitting or standing you can adjust them so you get the most out of each speaker but again that will most likely lead to some distortion or rattling. So far the bluetooth has worked pretty good, I have not had any disconnections but I have had some interference of some sort to where the stereo would get quite soft while listening to it at an elevated level, I am not sure what caused that but I think it was an app lagging or something. Overall, I would say for the money that this is without doubt your best option to get a good sounding stereo with bluetooth capabilities, it sounds very good and has some decent enough bass so you would be able to listen to your favorite songs and enjoy the experience whether you enjoy some classical, country, Americana or some loud rock or some hard hitting rap.

Review: 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.

Review: I purchased this surround sound system approx.4 months ago. Cost me approx. $400.00 all said and done. Sounded good when I set it all up hiding all the wires and positioning in my man cave. Use it once a week for an hour and a half concert video. The rest of the use is for regular TV. Right off the get go, I noticed one of the speakers did not light up like the others. The sound worked and it was a rear speaker so I didn't care that much. I did however feel like I should have everything working. I contacted the seller and they gave me two options, accept $10.00 refund or send the whole thing back for full refund. Doesn't makes sense to me as they would cover the cost of shipping and I'm sure it would have been more than $10.00. I decided to live with it. Fast forward four months later and the other right rear speaker must have blown as all it does is spit out static and scratching. I contacted them again regarding this and they basically told me too bad, past three months and can't return. This is horrible and a waste of my money. I will also be contacting Amazon regarding this.

Customers say

Customers like the sound quality, value for money, and ease of setup of the speakers. They mention that they can feel the bass in the floor, it's great for the money, and the wall mounting is easy. Some also like the lighting. However, some dislike the bluetooth connectivity and disagree on the functionality and build quality.
