 Don't waste your moneyOct 12, 2009
This is with out a doubt one piece of useless junk, DVD tray is so flimsy I am surprised it will hold a DVD disk. When playing a DVD movie the picture has a green tint and was unable to adjust the picture color using the TV Picture control. The Am/FM radio is barely acceptable. Maybe I just got a lemon but I have never been so dissatisfied with a product. Going to spend more and buy a name brand unit.

 Not the Best for DVDsOct 05, 2009
On the surface, this product seems to be pretty good at first. Then once it is all hooked up, things change a bit. The first thing you have to do is make sure you get all the settings correct or you won't get Dolby Surround on the external input.
The second thing I found out and it still bugs me is that it won't hold the last "source" setting after you put it on standby. There are three source settings; DVD, Radio and Line. I use Line 90% of the time. But every time I shut the system down at night and then start it up again the next day, I have to change the source to line again. This is really just poor design.
The third problem is on some DVDs it will skip and not play them. I thought I had a bad DVD until I bought my Blu-ray player a few weeks later and the DVD played fine on that.
Overall, the sound is great but I wouldn't count on it for playing all DVDs well.
 Couldnt be happierOct 03, 2009
I live in a college dorm room which is relatively small. I purchased a projector not to long ago and need a sufficient sound systems for it.I wasn't looking for anything fancy r expensive for that matter. I think it does a great job for the price and now my room has become the designated hangout. My only issues is playing for the usb or sd card. I haven't quite figured it out. Other than that, it has dvd, radio and ipod player for under a bucks and it sounds amazing! You can't beat it.

 Coby DVD938 5.1Sep 11, 2009
Somewhat easy to install. Hard the hardest time getting it into surround sound but after playing awhile and using the TV to see the prompts, it was a breeze. Sound is awesome. Did not need the to run extra wire for antennea. Over all a good unit for the price

A value itemJul 29, 2009
I view the Coby DVD938 from a "Value" perspective. Based on the relatively low price I do not expect top of the line performance; however, I do anticipate solid quality from a set of basic features.
The Coby DVD938 delivers on this criteria. Nothing fancy, just basic features with decent sound quality.
I would not recommend this for your main home-theater setup. Instead I would recommend it for a secondary system.
My only "Beef" with this unit is the way in which the audio source defaults to DVD each time the unit is powered off and back on. Add to this a really long delay on the Coby when switching between audio source input (approx. 3-5 seconds) and three audio input sources (DVD, Radio, Line). My primary use is for audio from my Dish satellite receiver. This is the "Line" audio source on the Coby. So, each time I power the unit on I trudge through the process to switch to "Line" audio input... My work-around solution to simply mute the Coby when powering down, then un-mute when powering back on (saves lots of time, but wastes some electricity I suppose).
