Sony DAV-F200 Other Audio Video - review, compare prices, buy online

This is the ultimate 2.1 home cinema system. My tv is a sharp aquos 42 inch lcd, a fantastic tv. So when it came to buying a home cinema system the sharp 2.1 with tallboy speakers was the obvious choice. Right? Wrong! What an absolute piece of crap. Nuff said. So I checked reviews online & the Sony 2.1 system kept popping up. Word of mouth cant be wrong! This system is awesome. A fantastic looking upright dvd player that is so simple to setup, 2 upright speakers that will fit most tv cabinets/stands & a subwoofer that will blend into any livingroom. The dvd unit upscales your dvds to 1080p, the 9 inch speakers & subwoofer boom out 400w of sound & there are 2 digital outputs so i can run my sky box & ps3 through the system with plaster cracking volume. Wish i had bought this system first. 10/10!

If you want simple music playback and some atmosphere for your DVDs but with minimum clutter its a winner. Easy set-up, deep bass and simple operation. Dont forget an optical audio lead if you want to put your LCD TV through it.

I got this just over a week ago, and Im thoroughly impressed. The unit is very stylish, but doesnt compromise in sound quality.

The subwoofer really does a great job of filling the room, and gives the illusion that the small speakers are pumping out that level of sound. The DVD player gives a good picture on the basic Component out, but Im looking forward to getting an HDMI cable and testing the upscaling properly.

Most impressively, the USB functionality has blown me away. The easy at which Ive been able to plug my mp3 player (also a Sony, but also works from my external Hard Drive) in to the device, and get excellent quality sound from it was a joy to behold. A little fiddly to browse if youve got a lot of subfolders, but thats to pick a small hole in an otherwise faultless display.

This equipments resonably priced and produces excellant sound. When playing DVDs it upscales beautifully and the picture quality is suberb (use a HDMI cable for the best picture as this made a big difference to my set-up). I was also impressed that the DVD units flat and compact, just like an LCD TV and can be screwed to the wall below your television negating the need for a horrible rack to house a conventionally shaped DVD player (It looks excellant). The sound is crisp and the bass unit rumbles brillantly. This was particularly cool when watching Saving Private Ryan. Its like the tanks are driving through your living room.

Had this for about a week, picture quality is excellent upscales dvds very well and plays divx movies. Sound quality is also excellent as is cd playback. For the money it is an absolute bargain.

Just one word of caution, the unit itself stands quite tall at 200mm so you must allow space on your stand to accomodate, a lot of stands wont fit this so youll need to shop around.

If stand space not an issue then get it, if you have a sony 40w4000/4500 is will look even better but also looks fab with my samsung 40a656.
