This system arrived in a huge box, (fast delivery I might also add from Pixmania, well done!).
First impressions when removing the surround speakers from the packaging was a slight air of disappointment with the plastic fininsh to the speaker boxes as I was of the impression these were real solid wood speaker boxes.
None the less the AMP made up for this, when all was in place I powered it up ran a two minute calibration with the provided mic and the built-in calibration utility.
I hooked it up to Sky-HD via HDMI in and Optical audio in.
The DVD connected via the second HDMI in and Digital Coax for the audio.
A minor adjustment to the audio delay on my Sky box and I was up and running, pumping out clear and rich sounds from these deceiving speakers.
There are plenty of sound fields and formats to choose depending on what you are litening to.
The system does merits a high score, although not perfect it does definitely outclass anything else in it's budget.
Another great product from Sony.
