Full Review

Just bought and installed a HTS8100/37 along with a Philips 47" LCD.

Not thrilled.

User guide EXPLICITLY states to use Component Video for best quality if connecting to a Progressive Scan TV. Tells you to turn Progressive Scan on/off on the TV. Can't do this on a Philips TV. Made two calls to Technical Support.

Using component video caused green lines on screen. Tried with HDHI; no green lines!

Component video outputs squeezed IN behind subwoofer plug. Hard to get into PLUS now the cable cover will not close. Too many cables on ONE SIDE.

I bet NOBODY actually tried this with component video. Otherwise they would have seen this problem.

This is a BLACK MARK for Philips.

I am JUST glad that I didn't pay full-price and got a good deal.

Will NOT recommend this product.
