Stylish design ; good spec ; attractive 3D and 2D picture ; precise effects steering

Sounds lean ; low frequencies lacks richness and weight ; no wi-fi

A fine system for the money but not quite the brilliant all-rounder we had hoped for

For smaller homes and more restricted budgets, the smaller Sony 5.1 system makes more sense than its larger sibling

good sound and picture

could do with more apps like itv player

Good looking, good price, good sound, good connectivity

Would prefer unit that can be stacked on more easily. And more important for me, the lack of full set of discrete input selection codes makes it difficult to use reliably with universal remote controls such as Logitech Harmony.

Easy to set up, smart looking.

Only short cable on the subwoofer limited placement

For the money I spent there should have at least been a WI-FI card installed or a USB compatable one free inside the box, to buy a Sony USB compatable one is far too expensive. Come on Sony be reasonable!

Good all round sound and picture Internet features are good Auto set up Unit itself looks good

Some delay with audio compared to TV picture No pass through when switched off Difficult to upgrade speaker cable Doesn't have 2 HDMI outputs.
