Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
It is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD video as well as digital multichannel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analogue signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI (Digital Video Interface).

USB Direct plays photos and music from USB flash drives

Floor standing speakers for freedom of placement

DTS, Dolby Digital and Pro Logic II surround sound

A built-in DTS and Dolby Digital decoder eliminates the need for an external decoder by processing all six channels of audio information to provide a surround sound experience and an astoundingly natural sense of ambience and dynamic realism. Dolby Pro Logic II provides five channels of surround processing from any stereo source.

12-bit/108MHz video processing for sharp, natural images

12-bit Video DAC is a superior Digital-to-Analogue-Converter that preserves every detail of the authentic picture quality. It shows subtle shades and smoother graduation of colours, resulting in a more vibrant and natural picture. The limitation of the usual 10bit DAC become in particular apparent while using large screens and projectors.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Value Home Cinema, 11 Dec 2007
    By J. D. Walpole - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Was first attracted by the price, then realised how many features it has, 3.5mm jack input for virtually any audio device, USB memory stick input for mp3's or DivX movies, Multiregion capable (code on the amazon page works !) HDMI up Scaling output too.

    The speakers are of good quality, especially the centre speaker and Subwoofer, the tallboy speakers are also very good, by default they are for the rear speakers but I have used them for the font speakers instead.

    Set up was very easy, speaker cables have colour coded plugs for ease of use and the manual (although hardly required) is very easy to follow, although the bass is not exactly thumping in your chest, the sound quality is very crisp and all in all I'm highly delighted with my purchace and will recommend to others.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Home Theatre System, 26 Sep 2007
    I bought this system yesterday and I am happy for it. Sound quality is excellent and the installation is very easy. There are lot of features we can use, I have connected my Sky box to this system using a stereo cable and its working fine. Excellent HTS for 150 pounds.

    1.0 out of 5 stars No Optical In - Not Good for Xbox or PS3.
    System has no optical input, so is pretty much useless if you want to hook up your 360 or PS3.
