Sony HT-DDW790
$199.00
Released March, 2007
The Pros:Great value system ($199, 800W, 5.1). Automatic setup. Extremely powerful bass.
The Cons:The pieces don't really look like they belong together when you see them in person. The reciever is a tasteful brushed stainless, but the speakers are silver plastic, and the subwoofer is black particle board. No dedicated subwoofer jack. The subwoofer vibrates (very annoying).
The Sony HT-DDW790 is value-price 5.1 home theater system costing only $199. Delivering 800 Watts of total power with 133 W coming from each of its 5 speakers and 135 W from a powered subwoofer. See the Sony HT-DDW990.

There are only three standard inputs here. That might barely be enough right now, but it doesn't offer you any room to grow.

The wires are fixed to the speakers. That means if you need a long wire to run around door frames or along the perimeter of the room, you will need to do some splicing.

#sony_ht_ddw790 Very Good system for the money. No this system wont blow up you windows, but it might wake up your neighbors. The system has 3 a/v inputs (minus the video inputs of course), 1 coax (for dd5.1, Prologic etc.) and 1 optical (same as coax but much cleaner and louder sound). Radio Tunner has 30 presets for you to (hehe)preset. and one cool feature (well for me at least) is your can change the name of the Preset text for each selection exp:Audio 1 to Xbox, or Optical to PS3 etc. So yeah these are satalite speakers (not mirco) and they do have some punch. The Sub is Descent. All in all a very Good entry system for most folks, and a Good Medium system for the poor (me!!). Supports DD5.1, DTS5.1 and a whole bunch of old ones too Pro log 1/11 and so on. For under $200 bucks you cant go wrong here.
