- Good points:
- Internet features, expansive surround sound effect, sharp picture.
- Bad points:
- Speaker cables too short and no way to extend without voiding warranty. Audio/visual sync problems were terrible at first, but Sony have issued a fix which seems to have largely resolved this issue. Unable to use iTunes Genius function when using iPod dock- only recognises a limited amount of folders on iPod.

- Good points:
- Bought this to provide a better sound than the standard Sony TV. It works well. No frills just greatly improved sound.It was good value for money.
- Bad points:
- Not being an expert in setting up such equipment I still have difficulty with the remotes and in my attempts to get all 'instructions' on to one of them. I have yet to 'sort out' the imperfections, probably my fault,but won't attempt this until after the Olympics otherwise I might miss something important!

Ben, UK Gadget lover
- Good points:
- Easy setup and available at low price!
- Bad points:
- Sound syncronisation through Sony HDMI cable to a Sony TV a little off - you can recalibrate this, but it's easier just to mute thr TV. Bravia Sync could work a little better.

Sound quality is amazing
Navigation is very good, reminiscent to Playstation navigation.
Overall look and feel of the system is top notch.
Has both music and video apps (Music Unlimited, Video Unlimted, LoveFilm etc.) - Bad points:
- Doesn't DLNA, I would have loved it to have this feature to interact with my Sony Tablet S
