5 out of 5 stars Great System but you need to add the TDM-NC1 Digital Port   October 2, 2008
C. Green
I have just updated my whole TV system with this great stand and the W4000 TV and a blue ray player the quality its great. My wife just love it and is so happy there are no wires leading to speakers all over the lounge. Please read on :- when reading the instructions came across the Digital Port input it turns out that if you buy this clever piece of kit you can stream in from your desktop or laptop all your music. It's great and for me has allowed me to get rid of my hifi and gain more space.



5 out of 5 stars Very good compromise if you cannot accomodate 6 speakers   July 17, 2008

I bought the RTH-G900 three weeks ago and I am very satisfied with it. I had before a big Pioneer amplifier from the VSX series plus 6 B&W speakers. To give you some scope for the comparison: about 2800 in equipment.

Things I like about the Sony:

1. Good looks and well built. It does look very good indeed.
2. Threes HDMI 1.3a connection plus 3 optical, one coaxial and one stereo also.
3. The HDMIs can take 1080p/24 without any problem at all.
4. The best part of this set is not that you can stream 5.1 though the HDMI connection and it will decode Dolby digital and DTS fine, as you expect: the ice on the cake is that you can also stream High Definition audio sources as long as you do it in PCM (only possible through HDMI) and then, you are in for a treat. If you have a HD-DVD player or a Blue-ray player then get ready for proper sound. The soundtrack in DTS-Master for "Brotherhood of the wolfs" in HD-DVD blew my head away last Saturday. Pristine sound, good scale and control. Soundtracks in Dolby TrueHD also sound great.

Things I do not care for:

1. The bass does not go low enough as you would like but it is quite pleasant and well controlled. Taking on account that the sub woofer is enclosed within the rack it is quite remarkable that it can achieve decent bass in the first place. Good but not great.
2. The surround sound field is not totally convincing but it does definitely sound far better and more involving than stereo. The atmospheric sounds in movies are reproduced fine with the virtual effect but it does not get close to my previous 5.1 at all. Taking on account that the whole thing cost me less than half of what I paid just for my previous amply, I think this is a 5 STARS product (and my wife is now happy too!).
