Brilliant sound and picture quality.

Advantages: play movies off usb stick, HD Upscalling, Great cinema quality sound.
Disadvantages: wireless woofer sometimes loses connection.

Brilliant system. The sound is amazing its as if you are in a real cinema. I have had my system now for nearly 6 months with out much problem except for the wireless subwoofer loosing connection now and again which is easily rectified by simply bring it more in range of the system, mine is in a corner beside cupboards which sometimes blocks the range. However the pros to the system area amazing. You are able to take your usb memory stick and play ...
...videos or movies onto disc you can simply load them onto your memory stick and play it through the system. The picture quality is amazing and it even senses when you shut the tv off, it will then shut the system off. It also has bluetooth feature where you can bluetooth any music on your mobile to your system and it will play wirelessly. ...

Samsung RTS-HE10

Advantages: 2.1, Sound quality, Looks!!!
Disadvantages: limited connectivity,

...something that would complement my Samsung TV, which would not involve lots of speakers, so the 2.1 configuration suited me. The product is a lot larger than I'd assumed,set-up was dead easy, connectivity is limited as to play my sattelite through the product I had to buy an additional lead which connects to the aux input. Sound quality is adequate, at higher volumes this product performs best. There is no way to manipulate the subwoofer volume, ...

Perfect for the smaller room.

Advantages: Tiny speakers, compact and good looking.
Disadvantages: Not enough inputs for a living room system.

...and in this environment the Sony is absolutely ideal. There is some discussion about the sound output being low, but I don't think this is the case at all. You need to have the control set to 60 to 65, which is most of the way, but at this position the sound output is exactly what you need for a good action movie. You couldn't have it at this level in a joined-on house, the neighbours would probably set the dog on you. Some people have suggested ...
...unit is going to run out of headroom. This is not so, it is only a control position, nothing more. The amps are all very well specified, and produce all the power you need (in a room this size). I never tried it in a bigger room, and now the cables are under the carpet, I'm unlikely to. Basic setup is easy using the calibration mic provided. I found some slight tweaking was needed afterwards. Sound is effortless and clear. Can be a bit heavy on ...

Very stylish offering from Philips

Advantages: Stylish, easy to use, good sound.
Disadvantages: Picture and colours could be better.

...purchased this to replace my Philips HTS3357 as I wanted to downsize (the rear speakers were huge). One of the reasons I opted for this particular model was the fact that it is a stunning piece of kit. I have wall mounted it below my 42" LCD TV and it looks fab. The DVD draw design is equally impressive the way it swings round, although how durable it is remains to be seen! The whole thing is glossy black and the DVD tray has a halo of light around ...
...leaves it prone to scratching and finger marks, so keep a lint free cloth close by to keep it looking nice and shiny. My first impressions were mixed, my older player upscaled to 1080i, whereas this upscales to 1080p. To be honest the picture on this isn't as good, and is a little disappointing as I was expecting an improvement over one of their older models. The picture isn't quite as 'clear' (slightly grainy) and the colours looked a little 'washed-out' ...
