Sony RHT-G900 5.1ch SOUND Rack System

[nufcmarson]

Hi, has anybody out there (come on WHF experts) seen any reviews for this all in one rack and surround sound system? I only have a small room and don't have the room for an actual 5.1 system. I would be using a sony 40w4000 tv and Sony Playstation 3 as my blu ray player.

By the way, therrp is about £700, I have seen it online for £480. Does that make any difference?

Hi

Yes I have also been looking at this, so would welcome any views.

I already have a good audio system in my living room: unfortunately it is not convenient to use the TV with that and having wooden floors I don't want cables for rear speakers, so the G900 seems a pragmatic solution.

Any views welcome.

Thanks

I have this system with a Sony KDL-40W2000, a PS3 and Sky HD.

I have found it to be very good, a huge improvement on what I had before (TV speakers). Its not quite surround sound and when I compare it to my friends full 5.1 surround system it falls down. But I dont have wires everywhere and I paid about £450 from amazon, instead of the £2000 he paid for his system.

The explosions in Die Hard 4, and Black Hawk Down are crystal clear, and sound fantastic.

I have not had any problems with it as regards Sky HD, and the 5.1 via the optical link is very good.

Overall its a good compromise between a full surround sound system and a speaker bar.

I also tried the Yamahar YSP, but it had to sit behind two of the legs on my TV stand, which totaly destroyed the effects.
