I was offered RM1890 for Sony SF2300 while RM2100 for Pionner RS7 without DVD player.

I was told that RS7 sounds better but do you think the speaker is ugly?
I like the sleek and modern design of SF2300, I haven't tested out both model yet, but if for you, which one will you choose?

Glad to hear that someone is comparing this two and need to make a choice out of it as well

I finally choose RS-7 after test out both side by side and RS-7 no doubt won over HT-SF2300 on the power and home theater experies, for an entry level try out

The speaker is indeed 'not agreeable' but although i always stress importance on the outlook as well as its quality, but guess we can't get two at one shot for most of the time

For RS-7 purchase, go to BM Hi-Fi shop near Sentosa there, they offer RM2100 without DVD Player also. I have bought DV610 at RM480 during A & L promo...

have fun...

The original price is RM2599, but I request the DVD player to be excluded, the new quotation is RM2100, speakers + AVR.

same here, request the DVD player to be excluded.
You bought DV610 as well? Remember than from DV610 to the amp need a HDMI and from TV to amp need another HDMI cable as well.

Therefore when you buy DV610 in cash, A&L Sungai Wang will give a free HDMI cable at RM480 cash purchase price, and also when you buy the RS-7, there is a free HDMI cable as well included

I forgot the name of the shop, but if you are in BM, you won't miss it when you are in town
Near Tong Mooi

They don't sell DV610...i suggest you buy from A & L Sungai Wang, got free HDMI cable
RM480 cash, RM550 Credit Card

The package without the DVD Player DV410 is RM2100, means taken off RM499 from the original package price RM2599, whole malaysia one price
So the most valuable is buying DV610 plus this set

i also feel the same,
but however after comparing this two sound quality especially the home theater power, i decided RS-7
However the great new is, for the ugly speaker of the RS-7, the shop i bought (Eng Hi Fi in Bukit Mertajam)
they are able to come out with very impressive speaker box cover that can hide the 'ugly' of the speaker specially for buyer there


therefore no regret of choosing RS-7

after all, i think back,
to buy a home theater still the sound quality of the home theater system is what we are chasing for,
and also look having said is important, as long as the 'look' can be beautified, i'm ok...

hi have confirmed that the name of the shop is ENG HI-FI in BM
They have stocks of RS-7

yes comes with AVR 818, and DVD 610
By the way there is one AVR-917 at RM1500 only, don't know can ask for change or not lah..but AVR917 comes in 7.1 channel

I didn't get the DV410, i got one DV610 from amcorp mall RM480
Yes, they do sell DV610 but more expensive from A&L amcorp mall or A&L sungai wang..they can't get the RM480 price
