DEANO, HULL , “A SONY FREAK”

Score 10.0/10+ easy to set up, good clear sound; plenty of power for such a small unit and speakers. Get an optical connector to get your TV and other sound through the system as well. Good sound from CDs and music
- Surround sound efect is passable but not true as per cinema sound. An iPod dock would make this even better although can connect via cable.

Tim , Barry , “Sound matters.”
Score 9.0/10+ Simple to set up. Excellent surround sound for only 3 speakers. If you or more likely your wife don't want cables running to the speakers at the other end of the living room - this is the system for you!
- None

Score 8.0/10+ Sounds good. Not too many wires and does not take up too much space.

The disc-spinner is compatible with most audio and video formats, although not Sony's own Super Audio CD, and the USB port can record as well as play. Unlike the fancy L…
