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.

Easy-fitâ„¢ connectors with colour-coding for a simple set-up

Colour-coded connectors provide a simple and user-friendly solution to connect the speakers and subwoofer to the centre unit of the home entertainment system simply by plugging the connectors in the matching coloured interface at the rear of the centre unit.

all very well BUT
Superb sound, set up etc,
However, if you have, or will have an HDMI tv, (and everyone will have, when the current tv dies or needs replacement) then this system is destined to be a hi-fi set.
Consider it's purchase to be akin to buying a very good value 8 track or record player. remember those?
the speakers of course could be married to a new tuner/high def dvd; in a couple of years you might wish that you had delayed the purchase or have bought into 2008 technology.

Great. Does exactly what it says on the tin
I received this last week and am for the most part thrilled with it. I will start with the 2 minor things that i have a problem with. The first being that the plugs on the end of the speakers are too big to go through the body of a speaker stand so bear this in mind when buying stands. I managed to get the plugs off and then thread the wire through but this is not ideal. Secondly if you are going to play an IPOD through it its not as loud as you would like if you like to play your music a lot. All in all though these are minor things. for the money it is FANTASTIC value and it is really easy to work and set up. I particularly like the fact that it isnt unsightly and in your face like some other types of home theatre as the speakers are relatively small and easy to place round the room. This is a great system with great sound for those on a budget and i have to say is more than loud enough if you live in a semi with neighbours attached like me. Highly Recommended.

good for sending abroad
i bought this home cinema just to send it abroad not to use it in UK. i tried all files it can play. though its clearly stated it plays div x movies. its a lie coz i tried all my div x cds it couldn't play any. also it failed to play my dvd-r(s). it only played mp3,cd,dvd and vcd, which is okey for a basic home cinema. i think if u want a real home cinema look for sony or samsung u no gona be disappointed.
