question for 360guy November 16, 2008
L. Shannan (Scotland, UK)
Im thinking of buying this but its to replace my old Sony 5.1 system that i plug my 360 into. I notice you say there's no way of plugging the 360 into this system but the specs say it has an Optical in so Why don't you use that ?
 Quite good for a surround sound 'sound' not a hifi replacement! November 16, 2008

** 129 brand new in Sainsbury's by the way **
Good piece of kit. Sounds quite good, not a worthy replacement for hifi separates but fine for surround sound purposes. Not a "cure for cancer" like most reviews on this product seem to claim.
It is easy to set up with miles of colour coded cables. HDMI and optical cables are NOT included. USB port won't read Hard Disks, only USB sticks. Regarding radio, the FM antenna is included but it's rubbish, so plugged it into the FM arial in the house which is not ideal if you're using that for the TV! Not tried the Digital Media port because there isn't a cable for this either...
Great hdmi upscaling DVD player so still can't see the point of buying blue ray stuff! Music channels sound great when on loud but too much bass and treble - extremes of both levels rather than a balance/synergy which is why i'm a little disappointed to be replacing my old hifi separates. But if you're not a big audio-phile then this is a good surround set.
Can't hear much from the rear speakers either by the way. In fact I watched The Departed last night and got hardly anything out of the rear speakers. Talk shows sound better through the TV only.
It will split stereo broadcasts into 5.1 surround which is good but then you have to keep changing the settings back and forth for this. And as with any digital output, the result is only as good as the source in the first place.
Brilliant! November 15, 2008

I bought this item following all the reviews on here - they weren't wrong!
This little system - for the money - ticks all the boxes & actually sounds excellent into the bargain, as well as really easy to install.
The only thing I found was that I needed a digital optical cable from the 'system' into my Sony Bravia TV, as well as the HDMI cable, in order to benefit from surround sound whilst watching TV, #ie not a DVD#.
Excellent - Many thanks to all the peeps who took the time to review!

Excellent Value for Money November 9, 2008
C. Gleissner (London, UK)
I recently purchased this home theatre system, mostly based on the many positive reviews on this site, the price, and the high number of connectors (HDMI, optical audio input). I am very impressed with this unit and highly recommend it, especially to owners of Sony televisions with HDMI connectors. The "One Touch" DVD play feature works very smoothly and the audio quality is great. Also works well as a stand-alone CD player. Highly recommended.
