 Lots of features, easy to use / install and great sound for the money August 27, 2010

I'm very happy with this purchase. I was looking originally at sound bars with a Blu Ray player that also would access Netflix. The reviews for the Samsung where poor. I was told that LG makes good Blue Ray players, and HTIB systems. We looked them up and found this one that had wireless rear speakers and sub woofer. WiFi built in for network access, and lots of online features including Netflix.
Installation was very easy, color coded wires for the speakers, the wireless sub woofer and rear speakers connected as soon as they had power. I have a WiFi network, blue tooth devices, and wireless home phones, none caused a problem. The rear speakers are 18ft away from the TV, still sound great and have no interference.
Getting the HTIB on the network was a breeze too. Even the Blue ray player updates is easy, it auto checks for me and asks to download and install.
I love this system, and for only $630 from amazon it's even better.
Note that wireless speakers still need an amp, so they plug into a device about the size of an external hard drive, that acts as the wireless receiver and the power (amp) for the speakers. Some people get confused about wireless speakers, they are just not wired to the base/player.
Very Happy August 7, 2010

This system is great, sounds very good with movies and music. Setup was very easy, the only thing that stalled the setup was that four screws that go with the tall boy speakers were missing.(oh well, not a big deal)I was able to easily hook up a xbox 360 and direcTv box to this without trouble. Also make sure you have an extra HDMI cable cause you will need it, if your not going to go with HDMI it comes with component cable. The Ipod dock works great and the blue ray is awesome. The Netflix, youtube, pandora ect. are awesome! Check out cnet for reviews they are very good.(as of 8/6/2010 they don't have a review for this) One other thing wireless speakers are not really wireless but if comes with a box the size of a wii and that's how it becomes "wireless". It saves running wires to the back of your room and trying to hide them, trust me its really not the big deal that some people are making it out to be. It sounds great and you won't regret buying it. Lastly buy if from amazon and not the other companies because amazon will take care you of you if something goes wrong. If you bought this item and need any help or question just comment and I'll get back to you ASAP.
 LG LHB975 Review July 12, 2010

LG did a good job in the design and features of the HTIB. Pros: I've been waiting for this system to come out for the last 5 months. Installation was a breeze, had the system running in less than 5 minutes. The sound is acceptable for the average person, but I am more of an audiphile. The lack of sound settings such as Bass, Treble limits me in tailoring the sound I want. The sub is a good "woofer" but lacks in the sub sonic capabilities of a true "sub woofer". I've hooked my cable set top thru the HDMI input, but when adjusting any of the sound effects or volume, the graphics do not appear on the TV. The graphics do appear when using FM or watching Netcast. Documentation is given a "B" because of the english grammer and poor discussion of "sound effects". I had wanted to re-program my Charter Cable remote to work the system, but was only able to get the "DVD" portion to work, volume control still has to be used with original remote.
Wireless system is a joke! June 19, 2010

When it worked, it worked great. Sound was better than I expected. But the wireless system was extremely flaky. It worked for several days and then it would quit. Tried to remate for over an hour, gave up, exchanged unit for a new one. Next unit right out of the box would not connect to wireless speakers. After many attempts I go it to work but a couple days passed and my rented movie went in, corn was popped, but no rear or sub could be heard. Tried and tried but had to watch the movie without my speakers working. The next day it went back in the box and shipped off for a refund. Planet73 gave a refund but would not refund shipping either direction so I was out about $100.00 in shipping fees.
 Works great, now that Netflix streams June 12, 2010

Got this right after it was available in May 2010 (should have waited a month and saved $110). Works great with easy set up. The wireless subwoofer and "wireless" rear speakers just worked. I didn't need to do any special set up. It is true the rear speakers aren't truly wireless but I researched before hand and knew what I was getting. Even though they are attached to the wireless unit by wires, it got them to the rear of my room where I could hide the wires. Subwoofer is great, just plug it in anywhere. The picture quality is great and I think the sound is great but I have to admit I'm not really an audiofile. Some have said they wish you could customize the audio settings more. I'm doing fine with the presets. Blu ray disk load quickly. I have the unit hard wired to my network so I can't comment on how well the wireless hookup to internet works. But wired like mine is outstanding. I can stream Netflix movies and Youtube and play any file on my home network (music, photos, movies). Pandora is great for music. Frankly I haven't even set up the FM radio because between my home network and Pandora I have all the music choices I could want. I ran optical audio cable back from TV and play my TV sound back through LG speakers, really nice to have this feature. Have my Xbox 360 going through the LG so I can take advantage of the speakers. Very happy with my purchase.
So what don't I like. For a while I couldn't get Netflix to stream. I made sure I updated the firmware. I also called Netflix (who's call center was VERY helpful) they told me what ports I needed to open on my router. It still didn't work. On LG's website I found a thread where it appeared many of the LG's were having the same problem. Finally there was an answer, I had to go into settings and reset the unit to factory settings. After turning it off and restarting the unit everything streamed fine. I don't know if this would be a problem to someone setting it up now with updated firmware. The only other thing that would be nice for a unit in this price range, would be for the remote to have a keyboard on the back like some are now providing.
If you're looking to upgrade to Blu Ray and want to get surround sound, I would recommend this unit, especially now that the price has come down.
