Sony HT-DDW900 Complete 5.1-Channel DVD Home Theater System with HDMI In a previous session I commented on purchasing the Panasonic TH42PX60U Plasma TV and my brief and general review of the TV is available here. In advance to purchasing a big screen plasma TV I had already decided that I would also be buying a Home Theater System with 5.1 Channel Sound. I mean buying a large screen TV without a Home Theater System is like buying a car without wheels or a house without heating or cooling. I looked at several models of Home Theater Systems and many of the
higher end systems were very appealing. Most notable of the higher end Let's begin by saying that the setup was fairly straight forward,
however, with any surround sound system the speaker placement is critical.
Plan on spending a bit of time playing with the placement of the speakers in
order to maximize the "surround sound effect". The speakers that come
with the
Sony HT-DDW900 Complete 5.1-Channel DVD Home Theater System would not be
described as "space age" cool by my generation. The 5 satellite speakers (2
front, 2 rear, and 1 center channel) appearance Performance wise this unit packs 900 watts of total output, 200 watts for the subwoofer and 140 watts for each of the 4 satellite speakers. What this translates into is wall vibrating crisp audio. This is movie theater sound "on the cheap". For more information on the system and consumers reviews click on the below link. For information on the Panasonic 42 inch HDTV plasma unit I bought click on the below link. By the way my only regret in buying this combo is that I did'nt dig up enough money to spring for a 50" Plasma TV such as the Panasonic TH-50PX60U
