Sony DAV-DZ830 Reviews

The Sony DAV-DZ830 is a stylish home-cinema system with a full 5.1 speaker arrangement and integrated DVD player. Rear speakers are wireless, which gives the set a clean appearance and setup is automatic. Uspcaled pictures from DVDs offer good black level...

Stylish and clean design; wireless rear speakers; automatic setup; natural images

Average build quality; fiddly installation; restricted features; sound lacks subtlety

An affordable home-cinema system for style-conscious users who prefer a clean appearance to an unsoiled sound performance

A stylish system that offers reasonable pictures but only average sound. You can find better for less

Unexciting sound delivery; fussy infrared signal to rears; poor auto-calibration

Wireless rear speakers; good picture performance; stylish looks

BEFRIEDIGEND

Excellent sound quality---really does upscale DVD to High Definition quality [picture and sound] on HD flat screen TV. Wireless rear speakers gives you so many options for positioning and speakers can be raised and lowered to suit seating levels.Listen to...

Some of the sound fields sound very similar --- but hey that's nit picking !!

Excellent upscaling and sound quality.

Menus are a little complecated.

Easy set-up and first class sound - looks great

The speaker floor plates are quite big (12" diameter) so allow for this
