The Pros:Mounting the speakers on wall is really easy. Overall setup is quick and painless. Crisp, solid surround sound quality for the price.
The Cons:Subwoofer is pretty big when compared to the smaller speakers. IPod dock not included, costs an extra $100. Receiver is a bit complicated to use at first, takes some getting used to.

Surround sound is managed by Cinema DSP, which coordinates the speakers to create a 3D soundscape. For situations where there isn't enough room to connect all of the speakers, Silent Cinema DSP is used to emulate 3D. Virtual Cinema DSP is also used to create the effect with headphones. 1080p is fully supported, as is the HDMI standard. Noise reduction standards supported include Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital, and DTS.
