Unregistered guest | I purchased one at walmart and I got to admit, I was really impressed. The sound is clear and crisp. The bass is deep and it was easy to set up...on top of that it was relatively cheap. At $75 bucks you will be happy! |

will1384 Unregistered guest | Found this place in google - thought I would post - I got one to - it is nice and works well - the bass from the sub is good but not full, but its a small speaker looks to be a 5.25 inch or smaller - buts it works well, the center speaker is fair but not good - the rest does its job ok - the AMP it self is a good amp - low power but clear with very little hiss no pops nothing but clean - seams well make - you can force it into surround mode even when its just stereo - its got a EQ of sorts a reset and even a test tone and you can switch inputs from the remote - its got Coaxial, Optical, AUX rca, TV/VCR rca, And a rca Game input I would rate this 7 out of 10 - its nice and clean sound but not full - missing some mid range and lower bass tones - the mid range is what is more lacking here - there is a slight hiss on the center channel when in stereo mode but you cant hear is unless your right up to it and your ear is like a inches from it - and I have 2 computers in the same room side by side and am using this on one of them |

Al Unregistered guest | Durabrand sucks!!!! Had mine less than a year and no sounds come from the speakers. I have tried everything. What a piece of crap. Buy something better |

Anonymous | I purchased the HT-395 about a week ago and I haven't had any problems exept for one, I can't get the sound from my regular TV. I think it's my TV's fault though since it works great with my XBOX, PS2, and DVD player. I really like the surround feature. The rear speakers are always really quiet though. I give it 8/10 because of it's 55 dollar price, and ease of hookup and use. Does durabrand have a website? |

Joshua DeHaven Unregistered guest | I have had my durabrand ht-400 since July of 2003 with only a minor problem when you first turn the unit on my fan makes a wierd grinding sound then it goes away after a few seconds. Other than that it is a very good system for under a $100. I would recomend the ht-400 to anyone that can not afford a full fledged system. Also one other thing that I found out is that the HT-400 can also decode DTS even though it is not listed on the specs. I would give the ht-400 7/10 stars. |

Bronze Member Username: KbkPost Number: 21 Registered: Sep-04 | Guys, take a look at some other Duranbrand/Regent?Walmart strings in this forum (there are quite a few) and make your own decision. I was going to buy the HT-391 just to try it out, but they were all sold out before New Year's. So I got the Onkyo HTS-570 for $270 instead. You get what you paid for. My system sounds top of the line to me. I'm not going back to the $40-$50 Regent or Durabrand idea anymore. |

Anonymous | Hi, None of the walmart stores around me carry the HT 391 at all. I have been looking for the past 2 months. The Walmart Website says it is out-of-stock. Is there another place where one can buy the HT 391. I am looking for something in this price range WITHOUT a DVD Player. |

Andy Fontella Unregistered guest | I bought the Durabrand HT-3916 non-DVD player home theater system a couple weeks ago, and I'm extremely pleased with it. Hooked it up to my existing DVD player (Philips DVP642) and it works like a charm. Sure the subwoofer doesn't output really low frequency deep bass, the center channel speaker output is a tad too soft even on maximum volume setting, but despite all this I'd recommend it to anyone. I mean it's 40 bucks, and you definitely get what you pay for. In fact the overall performance of this system is actually quite good and it is a step up from just the stereo output from your TV for example. A final issue is that the wires for the back speakers are not very long. In fact the length of these wires is about the same as the length of the wires for the left and right speakers. This may be a problem if the area where you want to place the system is large. However, I'm hooked and am going to keep it. Rated output power of 80 watts is a bit unrealistic. I think it's probably about 20 watts at best. |
