Has anyone else got this system?
Do they have the same problems I have, with the Sub Woofer Unit turning it self off every 5 mins.

I know it`s because there isn`t any strength in the signal, so it goes to low power mode, but when it does it makes an audibal whhhrrrrrr....
It`s annoying to the point of distraction, and I end up turning it off.

Is there anything I can do or configure, even if it means hacking at the insides of the damn thing.

Other than that, the system is fine, apart from the occasional crashes of DVD`s (Fifth Element is a prime example, I can`t do any of the features because it hangs the DVD player.)

Oh yea, does anyone know why grundig don`t list this particular model of DVD + AMP on their web site..???

Yours, a slightly concerned user.

You are not the only one who has had this problem, i had it and a few others still have it.
My solution was to take the whole system back and get a refund.
Dont let currys\dixons fob you off it seems to be a design fault as the repair guy in the shop tested quite a few of them for my benifit.
That noise done my head in.
Grundig wont answer any emails regarding this system and tell you to
direct any questions to currys.
At the time the assistant manager who i was dealing with couldnt authorize a refund and had to ring head office who duly did.

Yep, same problem. Thing is - i have learnt to live with it and spent so long trying to get an answer out of grundig/dixons that my system is well out of the month replacement time.
The reason it doesn`t feature on Grundigs site is because Grundig make it exclusively for Dixons. Which is a bugger cos Grundig don`t take responsibility and generally the freaks behind the counters at Dixons know sod all about it.
Such is life.
