Sony DAV Home Cinema

Relates to Movies

Beyond work, I have been a little bit distracted for the last few days, thanks to a new Sony DAV SB 100 Home Cinema System.

Up until this point I had been reluctant to make the leap to DVD, instead cashing in on the favourable prices of videos, but the Sony system has really opened my eyes. Ok, DVD brings with it a sharper and more enduring picture, but to me it is the dramatic improvement in sound that comes from 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS that makes the home cinema experience so exciting. And the Sony system delivers impressively on this front with four 50 Watt satellite speakers and an 80 Watt subwoofer which combined deliver a well balanced distribution of sound through the five channels. With easy installation, which was good for a novice user like myself, I could not recommend this system enough as a perfect entry to Home Cinema - with a very competitive price on Amazon.

My DVD collection is already growing with a selection of old and new, and I am just itching with excitement for Friday's release of The Lord of the Rings extended version box set - I know what I will be doing next weekend!
