I'm confused about the 5.1 home theater system. Is the amp built in to the DVD player?

Wow, I honestly had no idea Craig was still around. About 20 years ago, Craig was one of the _worst_ electronic brands you could buy (the cut-rate brand at Radio Shack, IIRC). Anyone know if their quality/reputation has improved?

It looks like there are only outputs to the speakers and to the TV. No inputs? So the only thing that will play over the speakers is what you put in the DVD player.

Okay that would totally suck...I was thinking of getting one for an old CRT that I have Roku connected to...but if there are no inputs...screw that! Thanks for saving me from myself zodar!

Couldn't you just hook it up to your own amp?

Purchased the Craig tower speaker. Very disappointed with the sound quality and construction of the unit. Emailed Craig but they have not yet to respond.

Does anyone know if the Craig Portable Speaker Dock CR4189 is ac/dc power or both? (ie does it plug in to power or is it just battery powered?).

I bought the Bluetooth tower speaker last time it was on Woot and it works and sounds great so far. It says that the remote control works on apple devices but it also works on my BT tethered Android cell phone, even with Spotify.

The only place I ever see Craig electronics is in NYC bodegas and other cheapo stores. I would not touch this with your ears.

I'm equally disappointed with the portable speaker dock. When playing through the SD port (where sound quality is the best), there's a faint ticking sound in the background. The sound quality through the line-in port is terrible, and I've tried four different cables to confirm that the issue is internal to the unit. I have yet to successfully play through the USB port. The only thing that's nice about it is the battery life, and it's decently loud for its size.

I just got the surround sound system. I've only connected the woofer and front speakers - and the sound was pretty good.

I hit a problem due the ancientness of my tv. But I'm pretty confident that when I get a new tv - I'll be pretty happy with deal I got on this system.

This sound system totally and completely sucks. Waste of money.
