Philips HTS6510 review

 

There have been several 'pseudo-surround' technologies over the years, but few work as well as Philips' Sonowave, which is found on this devilishly good-looking system.

Attractive ; Sonowave is excellent ; Excellent ictures

Pricey

Philips HTS6510 review

 

Philips' HTS6510 is a convenient all-in-one solution for a home cinema experience. Using only two speakers will always bring compromises, but the stylish design, convergence features and credible performance mean it's great value for money

Futuristic design ; HDMI upscaling ; Convergence ; Ease of use ; Performance for the price

Ugly cables ; Restricted stereo performance ; Unrefined low frequencies

That said, this is a first-class ambassador for pseudo-surround systems in its price bracket

Short life expectancy.

I bought one of these about 18 months ago. Had trouble getting it to play discs although I'd done the software upgrade, we found you have to 'tell it' you're going to play a disc ie press the right button on the remote before you put the disc in. Once...

Don't waste your money.

At first, the unit seems OK with a good sound. Then you insert a DVD and get the No Disc error. Probably the most frustrating kit I have ever owned.
