Acoustic Audio AA5170 Home Theater 5.1 Bluetooth Speaker System 700W with Powered Sub

I had my eye on this for a little over a year, but finally made the plunge when I needed to have something for a party that required music. I bought this really focused on having something with a good amount of power. I read some reviews on here for these speakers and some were good, some where bad, so ultimately this comes down to personal opinion.The speakers arrive in a nice box. As I opened the package, my first thought was "these speakers seem a little small. I'm not sure that these will be loud enough." I plugged in just the sub/receiver and the center speaker and had the volume at 15 (30 is the max) and I was shocked at how loud it was. I took it up to 30 and my roommates and neighbors were a little concerned about the noise - again, only the sub and center speaker - I hadn't even plugged in the remaining 4 speakers. The bass from the sub is amazing!I haven't had the time to test all the speakers connected, but I'll update this review in a few days.UPDATE (After a few days later)I am still really impressed with these speakers! I managed to do a sound test at a friend's house that has a big backyard, this time connecting all 5 speakers. This little set did an impressive job by my standards. My friend was equally impressed with the audio. The controls seem basic, but provide means for controlling volume for the surround speakers individually from the front speakers, the sub, etc - that's nice to be able to adjust the speaker zone volumes.I actually ended up buying two because I was a little concerned that I might not have enough sound from this system for an outdoor venue, but one was enough. Nonetheless, I did a sound test of both simultaneously using a 3.5 mm y splitter to an aux source and the sound was impeccable. No delays, no issues, no regrets at all. I'm keeping the secondary unit; the price is too much of a bargain. My apologies in advance to my neighbors.Would I recommend this system - Absolutely!

I have had this for about about 3 months now and it works better than i could have asked for.PROS: Good clean bass that hits the low bass in rap, trap, or dubstep (or pretty much any other genre of music). It has a nice design not overly extravagant and doesn't work like what i have found to be the case in other systems but simple with a good design. I like that each speaker has a separate volume control. The bluetooth is also solid.CONS: I don't really have that many cons other than when you turn the volume past 28 (which goes up to 30) the bass starts to be a little boomy i guess you could put it. It isn't really all that noticeable unless you are an audiophile and i also like to listen to music with bass that can make the world a happier place due to vibrations causing the acceleration of cells to cause some sort of chemical happiness. There is also the RCA jacks length a few of them are short for the room i am using it in but i made it work.Anyways it is a great system probably the best one out there for the price or even a more expensive one for that matter. I would recommend it to everyone. Although if you are looking for bass that neighbors will call the cops on you for this only gets you about half way there.

Good sound.all connection and wireless options functions work. Great price.

Due to me using a portable ac/heater in my living room and it setting to where air blow between my chair and the TV it really messes with sound. i had a higher end sound bar with a woofer and smaller sound bar that use to be amazing till i got the ac and was now unable to hear sound well. i am in a wheelchair and it took me 30 mins to set this new system up. I set volume at 9 which seemed like it would be right. i turned on tv and had to turn it down to 6 and i have sound everywhere. i am so happy.

I think this may be my first review on Amazon. So up until this point nothing has ever angered me enough to the point of writing a review.Let me start off by saying, I enjoyed these speakers the first month or so when I had them. Pretty good sound. The option to switch from 2.1 to 5.1 with a push of a button. I mean the remote is fantastic, when it works. However, after that month was up, they started making this shrill noise. It's like a Tinnitus simulation. Or it sounds like they're picking up sound waves from another dimension. Absolutely terrible. The sub makes a constant tapping noise. Not sure what causes it, and if it's not tapping the standby light on the front will make the speaker plus the sub emit this low tone. Are people trying to contact me through morse code? Who knows?! Any movie or music that is playing constantly gets interuppted by these sounds. Really, it can be a combination of all of them (minus the standby one) I think these speakers were not wired correctly or not grounded properly. Also, the front left speaker blew out recently for no reason. I'm not really the kind of person to crank the volume to 11, or in this case 30. So I'm not sure of the cause of the blowout.I bought these mostly for the Bluetooth feature, and for the fact I really didn't want to be wearing headphones 24/7. Bluetooth connectivity is subpar at its best. Randomly, sound will cut out, or more noise distortions. These distortions are different, they are like muffled sounds like when you haven't plugged in your aux cord all the way. This is all happening with my phone being only feet away from the sub. It even happened with my phone resting on the sub.I feel cheated after buying these. The Amazon return policy was up right before all these troubles started happening. This was one of the few purchases that I whole heartily regret on Amazon. If you're in the market for speakers, you might as well just spend the extra couple hundred and get good quality speakers. I'm now saying this now because I'm at the point of just throwing these speakers away, due to the reasons I stated above. I just can't take these terrible noises anymore. So if you're planning on buying these, you might as well just toss a hundred bucks into the trash.
