One HDMI Out
on September 5, 2011
Posted by: Anonymous
from Nashville, TN
Novice; not audiophile. BUT, I follow directions EXACTLY; never had a problem setting up other AV / computer equipment. Getting this up & running with my new Samsung LCD TV LN40D630M3F was rocket science. Room 13 ft x 13 ft, + length to reach speakers on 3ft stands & "box" on shelf. Proprietary wire terminations at box; bare at spkrs. Spkr wire too short to reach 1 rear spkr or place the un-powered subwoof away from box. Bought wire; spliced 1 rear spkr wire close to box. Subwfr staying put. Now set up, am certain I'm not getting full benefit of either piece of equipment. Syncing 2 Samsung remotes still hasn't occurred; constantly accidentally changing the SOURCE on the TV, turning off the program I was watching. VERY annoying. Want TV off when listening to cable music, but turning TV off, turns off the box. iPod dock works great; menus show on TV screen. Haven't watched a movie yet. Good sound with power, but not nearly as good as the older Yamaha system I replaced.
Pros: compact sleek looks nice on shelf
Cons: shiny black shows dust or pet hair instantly, 1 hdmi (out) period

Great sound and love the apps. Only con I really see with this product is you need an optical cable to listen to tv broacast in surround sound. I wasn't made aware of that until after purchase. Otherwise I would highly recommend this product to anyone.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: need optical cable
I would recommend this to a friend!

I replaced an older component system that has been very reliable over the years, and am very happy with the HT-D5500. The small size, ease of setup, and vast array of features make this a very pleasant home theater system to install and own. I would recommend this system to anyone looking for an inexpensive, powerful home theater system.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight

Great for a starter unit

Great unit for the bedroom or second viewing room. We put this up in the front room but couldn't get anything to work on it except the TV. After that I put it in the bedroom and it is great for that simple set up.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product has serious limitations
on August 19, 2012
Posted by: LimitedHearing

Expertise:Intermediate
Samsung will not tell the purchaser that this Home Theatre does not have the capability of showing subtitles in movies or programs from the Internet. It will not show those subtitles for Netflix programs who when viewed through a laptop do have subtitles. This limitation of the equipment is vital for people that want to have the subtitles when watching a program. I bought the Samsung equipment to be able to see Netflix programs without having to hook up my laptop to the TV. Now I see those Netflix programs directly but without the subtitles I have great difficulty in understanding the language spoken, because my hearing is not as good as it used to be when I was young
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, not subtitles from internet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Flawed System

Expertise:Expert
The HT-D5500 reads like it should be a nice, inexpensive start to a home theater system. Samsung most know the HT-D5500 and the Samsung website are both inferior as reviews are limited to a few words. The longer I have it the more disappointed I am.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, bad firmware, clunky interface, poor website support
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
