Customer reviews
Excellent System
I bought this unit the first day it was available. I love it! I’ve paired it with the 52″ Sony XBR4. The sound on some systems with wireless rear speakers is not that great. I bought a panasonic for my boyfriend at Xmas and his doesn’t sound anywhere nearly as good as this unit. I did mount my rear speakers on adjustable black speaker stands from Walmart which gets them up at head level if you’re sitting. That did make a difference in the sound system. I also like to use the S-air unit as another room speaker. You will not regret this purchase.
Excellent product
I had done a great deal of research and had narrowed my search down to this sony model and panasonic’s equivalent. I chose this because of the wireless Air unit and the overall look. My biggest concern when I purchased was the wireless speakers conflicting with my wireless router for the computers and playstation as well as the wireless phones running on the same frequency. I am glad to say there was no conflict what so ever and the speakers sound great. I would high recommend this product to anyone looking to upgrade their sound system and not looking to pay a thousand or more for a component unit. The remote is somewhat confusing but has a lot of features once you get the hand of it.
If you decide on this unit, which i would highly recommend, be sure to flip through the instructions whether or not your use them for actually putting everything together. There are a number of features and some do not include using the rear speakers depending on the input type used. So be sure if the rear speakers do not come on that you have the proper settings selected.
Overall, the sound is great. The speakers are crisp and the bass sounds fantastic. Definately a great deal.
Very good system and delivers a lot for this price range
I have owned this system for about a month now, and did a fair amount of research before settling on this. I am very happy so far with the quality and features and think this is probably the best you can do in this price range. The picture quality is great, the sound quality is even better. I have used it with CD’s and my iPod quite extensively, and you can tinker with the various sound modes to find one that works well for you. The iPod dock works great. The surround sound for movies is very good and very powerful - the system has more power than we need for our house which has a pretty large and vaulted living room. Unlike our prior wireless surround system, the wireless speakers on this seem to get a very clear signal and don’t have any delay or sound loss.
There are only two differences between this model and the next price down, which is I believe the 279 model. This one comes with the S-Air unit, and on this you get speaker stands for two of the speakers. The S-Air units are $120 on their own, and the speaker stands are at least $60 or so, so I think for another $100 this is a better system. Note that while the instructions say the speaker stands are for the front speakers, you can actually use the speaker stands as your surround speakers in the rear - both the front and rear speakers are identical in terms of wattage and impedance, they are just different shapes, and we wanted the speaker stands to be used for the wireless rear speakers and stand in the corners of the room. The S-Air unit is great too - it’s like another speaker, and we have it in our kitchen, and it’s wireless too, so you can listen to the music or the news and have it on in another room too. Also, you can control the music from the S-Air - including controlling the iPod attached to the dock, and skip songs and control the volume, etc. We like it so much we’re going to buy another S-Air unit for another room. Otherwise, the two systems have the exact same unit and speakers.
We are very happy - it was easy to set up, it has been easy to use, the quality is good. We have our cable receiver hooked up to it, and there is no delay when you want to turn on the surround sound while watching a TV broadcast, which happened on our old Samsung system. Highly recommended so far.
