Great sound and features where you need 2 speaker surround
I have had this unit installed on a yacht for 3 years and it works great. Sound is excellent, the sub is small enough to stash away in a cabinet, the DVD has worked fine. The one glitch is that the treble control has a bug where you have to press the "select" button and "up" arrow on the treble to get a boosted treble to kick in. I tolk Sherwood about this, they may have fixed this in later units. .... Read more

Good looks, decent sound, questionable reliability
I've had this unit for about 2 years. After about 18 months it started having problems reading DVDs - even brand new, commercial ones. Would try to load for several seconds and give an error. After much back and forth with Sherwood they decided they would fix it if I sent it to them and paid shipping. I did so, and they fixed it for no charge. It's working much better now.

some problems
I have had this unit for a couple of years now. The manual buttons other than the DVD load and unload, do not work. touching any button turns the unit off. I did not notice this until after I had it for a few weeks, because I always used the remote. So I guess it doesn't matter.
I notice volume changes with 5.1 sound when I use the TV output into the AUX connector. I don't know if it is the TV or the Sherwood causing it.
Next time I will buy a 5.1 or 7.1 system. .... Read more

Erratic DVD problems
I also have had this VR670 18 months, and now we cant get more than about 45 mins into a dvd and it freezes up. Same issues others note in this forum.
Closest repair facility is 45 miles away. Not good. Sound is great, but a home theater has to play dvds to make the theater happen. Otherwise, it is just an amp. .... Read more
