    Good Points: Its cool and sexy!


    Bad Points: None really, some people might be put off by its size but not me.


    General comments: I'm a complete novice when it comes to these things so took advice from an online store. The guy told me that this was the biggest bargain going. The brought in a new model which has some feature this one doesn't but he assured me I wouldn't need the updated feature anyway.

    I got an electrician to install it but then followed the instructions to set the sound up myself - its simple you just connect the microphone and it does a self test.

    I have it connected to a Sony Bravia and the sound and picture are excellent!

    This is a very good bang for the buck for the average consumer. It has enough power for the speakers (130 watts per channel), set up is quite easy that most novices can perform the task, and it sounds very good. It isn't audiophile quality but it is good enough that my old ears can't tell the difference. The different sound stages available at a click of a button is a nice feature as well. A negative comment is that controlling individual pairs of speakers is not easy. I would love having button ...
