DAV-HDX285 3.9 5 16 16
My New Home Theater System I had a Home Entertainment System for 13 years, and it was okay, but not great. When it died on me, I had the uncomfortable decision to look for a new one. I shopped in a number of stores selling electronic units, and I kept finding Sony products that were to my liking. When I found the HDX285 I also found the best possible price. I grabbed it. It was easy to hook up, and it would have been even easier if my cabinet had not been so heavy! I love the performance, the sound is great, especially the Surround Speakers. The Dynamic Bass really adds a punch. This is a system that can be added unto, and if I ever get an I-Pod I will already have a place to park it. The S-Air capability has me intrigued, and I am saving my money to buy me one of those units. It seems simple to add to my system, and it will allow me to have music in any other room I choose. I really like this system, and would recommend it to anybody! April 15, 2009
Great sound I looked at many Home Theatre Systems in the same price range, Sony had much beter sound quality of all. System is ease to setup and Auto Calibration is a great fiture. March 29, 2010
Apple ipod nano 5th generation WILL work!!! We recently bought a sony bravia tv and wanted to get Home Theater to go along with it. We are very happy with our purchase. This system ROCKS!!!!!! One tip though, regardless of what tech support says, the Apple Ipod Nano 5th Generation IS compatible with the Sony Bravia DAV-HDX285 system!! Tech told me it would not work, but went to walmart, bought one just to give it a try anyway, hooked it up, and now we are jamming :) February 28, 2010
Good Value For the Money I was able to pick up this up from SonyStyle as a Refurb for about half the price as Sony is offering it for. It is a great deal. I love the sound from the unit, it is terrific. Having an iPod dock is a huge bonus, those can go for $50 or more. This unit does take time and patience to set it up. In all I spent about 3 hours on it, to set up my TV, Xbox, Cable Box, VCR/DVD player, Wii to it. I could see how people could have problems getting the proper sound. One key is to internally mute the TV. I do not have a Sony TV, I have a Samsung, so this probably works easier with a Sony. I had an error code when I first hooked it up that said, "Unplug Mecha Lock". You can erase this by pushing the power button out to the left. February 28, 2010
