I'm graduating in a few months, and I thought I'd reward myself by upgrading to either a region-free DVD player or a surround-sound setup. The Malata 3600 would, of course, solve both problems, but I don't want to buy something that's either going to not be a huge upgrade over the current DVD-and-TV setup or break soon and force me to get new equipment. Basically I just don't want to go into the purchase uneducated.

I've prowled these forums, but all of the problems are very specific (and terrifying). Are there any in-depth reviews on the setupfloating aruond? And fuggit, while I'm here, if anyone has any testimonials, I'm more than willing to listen.

Thanks

Bump.....I would like to know if anyone has any opinions about the DVD player or the entire system?

....Bueller?.....Bueller?.....

I'm also interested in possibly getting this system ..... so anyone? Or do we assume that no-one else has this yet?

I think the fact no one can review this unit should be your answer.

Way back, when I first upgraded to 5.1, I purchased a Bose surround system and the speakers were this size. I hated them. No power, no clarity, no surround, no nothing. If Bose didn't live up to it's name, I'm not so sure these would be better.

Buy a region-free player now and wait on the surround system until you can afford something you'll be happy with.

Just my $.02
