    Good Points: Satellite speakers are first class
    Easy to store


    Bad Points: Centre Channel Speaker is disappointing


    General comments: If you want really nice Cinema Sound, from your sparkly new DVD player, but simply do not have the room for a big Seperates Amp, 5 seperate speakers AND a bass box, then this just has to be the best you can buy.
    It's not cheap: I paid £350 over a year ago and that's about the same as it is now. However, for me, the ability to have tiny satellite speakers that are easy to put away, and a bass box that can be hidden from my destructive dogs, left the opposition no chance. Not for me a 3 foot high speaker either side of my TV and a centre channel speaker bigger than my DVD player. I can put this lot away in a cupboard in minutes.Which means that potential "Prying Eyes" can't see it from outside either whilst I'm out.

    Sound:
    Satellites(x4):Mind Boggling for the size of the speakers. The drivers in the satellites are fantastic, and the little boxes are accoustically shielded and baffled.They sound truly incredible.
    Centre channel:A bit weak, BUT it sits on the TV top easily, and has all the control lights on it and the volume control, so it's convenient.
    Remote:Easy to use, and adjust individual speaker volumes too. It's tiny as well.
    Bass Box:The amp and decoder are in this as well.All the wires go here.Both COAX digital AND FibreOptic digital.Plus the cable for the centre channel(good length) and the power etc, plus the cable connects for the 4 satellites. AND ITS LOW AND LOUD..it makes this set up a powerhouse.

    Right, onto technology :-)Plug in your Video or Stereo to the Phono inputs, and it auto detects what you are playing and will do a blinding job on Pro Logic with your Nicam Video's
    Plug in your Digital Output from your DVD player (both 5.1 AND DTS...awesome compatability from this system) and it decodes the lot. It lights up the Centre Channel lights to tell you what's available.....AND IT SOUNDS AWESOME.
    This is something which I thought I would buy and then upgrade from, but one year later and it still does the job to 101% of my hopes.
    As an aside, music is quite nice too....forget all 5 speakers, just use it in stereo mode.....those satellites are really incredible.OK its not quite as good a two big floor standers and a seperate amp, but it is the basis for my WHOLE music and ENTERTAINMENT system now....

    A good system from top to bottom. I am tepted to dismantle the centre channel, and find a better speaker from somewhere (maybe a car high grade car speaker) but in the mean time, I just knock it up a notch over the others.

    Please be aware my 9/10 rating is only because of the centre channel and IT STILL KILLS A STANDARD TV 5.1 SYSTEM BUILT INTO A TV STONE DEAD.
    I give it a 9/10 for Value because I use it for music AND videos AND DVD's......but I realise its a fair bit of dough in comparison to other systems, but if you can save a bit more money then do...it's a blinder!

    The Videologic Digitheater DTS cost me £370 from dvdworld,
    A truly outstanding purchase which brings a whole new outlook to movies.
    So easy to setup, nice looks but overall it's the performance that stands out.
    There are 11 lights on the volume display which go out after a few seconds of adjusting the volume and i set it to volume 8 to test it with these discs,

    Having read lots of reviews (all of which have been good to excellent) and after an audition of the Videologic Digitheatre DTS system, I decided to take the plunge into home cinema (I had originally looked at separates, however my budget did not allow in the end). Any reservations I may of had about this system have been totally obliterated by the fantastic cinema effects it produces. OK, it may not have the sound quality of hifi separates, but as a complete all-in-one package, for the money, it ...
