Space efficient, but some limitations
|
Clever design is space efficient. the "control unit" is only 6x2x2" with all the amps actually located in the Subwoofer.
So you do not need an extra shelf for the receiver.
I used it in "front" surround mode with the 2 center speakers moved to the center and the main and surround speakers stacked on each other on each side of the TV
Soundstage has good width. Sound is decent but size of speakers limits the "richness".
The biggest problem was that the decoder did not handle the different TV sound broadcast modes well. I hooked my DVR to the unit via optical cable and the unit handled sound from the HD 5.1 channels well. But it could not handle the stereo from either digital or analog channels via this hookup. I could switch to 2 cable RCS hookup from the DVR--but then you lose the digital 5.1 encoding from the HD channels.
And while the unit is compact there still are quite a few wires to deal since all 6 speakers have to be connected to the subwoofer/amplifier. |
