Reliable, good range of input devices all with the option of SPIDF input too, and sounds good with lots of options for manually switch between different modes e.g. Dolby/Non-Dolby, 2 channel, 3 channel, 5 channel etc

It seems almost pernickerty to say, but it can be a little slow to start-up sometimes (5-10 seconds), however this may part of the Sony intelligent communication to determine which device has just been turned-on

Only needed system with speakers & receiver only, not one with built-in DVD/Blu-Ray ; Easy set-up,using auto method, took approx 15-20 mins ; Stylish, 3 HDMI ports, sync's well with stand alone DVD/Blu-Ray player ; Sound quality excellent

Can't think of any - only tuned to 1 radio station at the moment, bought more for the surround sound aspects of product , as i'm not one for the radio

The unit can be difficult to set up due to the display, even on its brightest, being hard to see. Also the setting up options via the buttons are not user friendly. The main L and R speakers are not quite matched to the powerful woofer which can...

Excellent sound for everyday TV compared to standard TV speakers. When you crank it up for films or music from other sources good sound quality is still there. Auto set up is easy with supplied mic. and standard settings are fine. Able to use...

Great product. Blown away by sound

This is a great product. I had been looking for a separates system that would not break my bank account but by chance happened to see the demo of this product and was really impressed. Note that it does not have a blu ray player and does not decode HD...
