- Good points:
- I got it as part of a deal at the Sony Centre so was a bargain. I have been surprised by the quality & power of the sound since using it & it makes a good alternative to a surround sound 5.1 type system if that isn't suitable.
- Bad points:
- Satellite speakers aren't the best build quality & have no input jacks to allow you change the speaker cables.

- Good points:
- I have had this equipment a couple of months now and all is great. Very easy set up. Sound is excellent. I have used a digital connection to my sky box and DVD player and get great sound from both.
- Bad points:
- The subwoofer is quite large so not easy to hide in a room.

- Good points:
- Excellent sound with real depth. Makes you want to watch all your films again just to hear how it always should have sounded.
- Bad points:
- Can be difficult to set up so the auto switching works as you want it to. Bass unit is quite large so could be difficult for some people to find the right place for.
