Review by Agent Smith for Curtis DVD6091 5.1 Channel DVD Home Theater System (Black)

It’s Black Friday and I picked up this Curtis 5.1 Home Theatre System Model: DVD6091 for $48.95 along with a few other things. It came with 5 little speakers and 1 sub-woofer. The price is pretty good and there are only 2 boxes left so I grabbed one. I wanted a Bose system but I’m not ready to spend $1,200 on a home theater system yet.
After installation I noticed that only the 2 front speakers are working and the other 4 were silent although I can tell they’re active because of the slight hissing sound when I placed my ear close to them. So I did some trouble shooting by performing the “Test Tone” from the settings menu and all 5 speakers made a sound confirming that the speakers work.
so I called Curtis Customer Service 800-968-9853 and after being put on hold for 5 minutes I was greeted by their tech support whom I assumed is from India due to his Indian accent. After telling him about the “Test Tone” he instructed me to replace (I guess that meant unplugging them.) all the wires for 30 minutes and unplug the system then carefully plug everything back making sure the wires are properly connected. If that doesn’t work, return the unit to the store and have it replaced.
After hanging up the phone I wasn’t satisfied with his advice since I used to do tech support for satellite receivers myself 10 years ago so I didn’t follow his suggestions of replacing all the 20 color coded wires behind my wall unit which is not easy to get to. What I did was examined the DVD I was trying to watch that I rented from Netflix. It is labeled Dolby Digital. It didn’t say 5.1 Dolby Surround. I took another cd from my collection and I found one that’s labeled 5.1 Dolby Surround. So I played that and Bingo! all 5 speakers worked.
I have no experience with Home Theater systems before and now I know that Curtis home theater systems only works on dvds with Dolby Digital Sound tracks up to 5.1 channels. I’m not sure about other brands but when I’m ready to spend $1,200 for that Bose home theater system, I know what questions to ask.
So if you bought a Curtis Home Theatre System Model DVD6091 and you can only hear the 2 front speakers working? Insert another DVD that’s labeled 5.1 Dolby Surround and choose that 5.1 Dolby option in the menu before calling their tech support from India.
This product’s quality is pretty decent for $48.95. The volume has a maximum limit which is ideal for apartments because you can’t really blast it loud enough. I mean it’s loud but not loud enough for my taste. The other downside for me is the dvd player that it came with. My BluRay player doesn’t have the inputs for its home theater speakers so I’m stuck with the Curtis dvd player if I want surround sound quality.
My overall review on this system is 6.5 out of 10
By the way I phoned Curtis tech support again informing them that I wanted to give them a feedback and let them know how I fixed my problem and that the tech support that answered me previously didn’t know anything about their product. So I politely explained to him why I was only hearing 2 speakers and gave him a short lesson on DVDs how some of them are not compatible with 5.1 surround sound systems and that he’s going to get the same support question soon since these units are flying off the shelf this Black Friday. Then he hanged up on me, or the line was dropped for some reason LoL. Not even a thank you. Oh well. This is why I’m not a big fan of “Off Brand” products. Their support sucks.

the dvd player is great but if your looking to use the subwoofer for anything buy something else the sub is under the bottom which makes the sound muffled and the speakers are not that loud for a kids room maybe but not anything else

When I bought this Coby DVD-419 home theater system, the first question was did I buy the Bose system. No. I wanted a 5 speaker system without having to run wires AND has HDMI. This is what I think is the best available system. It plays DVD’s, CD’s, MP3’s, and as a component and my iPod . I played Eyes Wide Shut the other night through the system and the new panasonic 1080p and was astonished at how well it played. My cat was dodging the bullets from around the room. The girls sounded like they were coming through the wall. Sounds you don’t normally pay attention to or hear on standard play are now audible and give a true to life experience. I have been impressed by Sony, however, this is a tremendous system; and wireless surround.

I bought this system for my Daughter’s room to hook up to a small video projector. The DVD player wouldn’t play about half of my Daughter’s DVDs. These same DVDs would play just fine on any of our other home DVD players. The message we would receive was “LOADING”, but the DVD just wouldn’t play.
When the system would load the DVD correctly the speakers sounded great, but the DVD player would skip. I tried a DVD cleaner, but the problem just got worse.
One month later the DVD player wouldn’t work at all. The speakers are still working fine.
We have another Coby portable DVD player with a built in 7in screen. This DVD player works great and we have never had any problems with it and are using it in place of the DVD player you are considering buying.
I would pass on this model, but don’t reject all of Coby’s products.

Gotta say this little set up works great for a space that just wouldn’t support a full 5.1 system. When you have a small apartment, paper thin walls, and a neighbor who is just primed to lodge a noise complaint… well you get the point. I was getting a lot of “muddy” sound from the TV speakers, and my DVD player just went. This little baby sure took care of both. Only real drawback is that it is only a composite out, but can I really complain when I only have standard def. DVDs?

I was looking for a small Home Theater System for my bedroom and most were to large and bulky. The Coby DVD 419 Home theater system fit the bill perfectly. The DVD player worked great and contrary to other reviews I found the sound to be quite good.
For the price, size, and look of this item it can’t be beat!
