4-Sep-2007 Louise: Is it possible to watch TV or Sky+ with surround sound as well as DVD's? If so how is the connection made ? There don't seem to be enough audio input sockets on the DAV to achieve this. Am I correct?

Easycom: you need to channel everything through one device, your Sky bos is best. Thats what I do

11-Sep-2007 BDM: will this system work with the xbox 360 ?

Easycom: yes

9-Nov-2007 paul: will this product replace my stereo and dvd player

Easycom: Yes.

5-Dec-2007 Steve: What is the difference between the DAV-DZ230 and the DAV-DZ231 ?

Easycom: the 230 is all black, 231 is silver

5-Dec-2007 damo: how do i connect my xbox 360 to this? if you run it through tv surely you will hear what is on tv and not xbox 360

Easycom: it only has a single HDMI or SCART on theback, so you will have to get a splitter to alternate the signal source through the home cinema

12-Dec-2007 Mj: Is This Syestem Region free?

Easycom: no

28-Dec-2007 clh: i have a sony bravia hd tv with 3 hdmi connections, and a ps3. If i purchased this surround system can i also use it to get surround from my sky hd channels and normal tv - if not could you recommend another sony model with divx compatibility thank you so much

Easycom: Not with this system. the cheapest Sony that will support what you want is the DAV-DZ630 as it has seperate audio in channels

28-Dec-2007 Greg: How does the 360 Connect? through the TV Scart Output? if so does scart support 5.1

Easycom: scart does not support 5.1 best way would be via HDMI

29-Dec-2007 Daniel: How are the speakers connected and what length of cable comes with this product for placing the speakers around the room?

Easycom: the speakers are connected by wires, and there isn't any details on the length of the speaker wires

14-Jan-2008 jayne: will this system work with samsung plasma 42", if we watching sky tv is Samsung PS42Q97HDX 42" HD Ready Plasma Television

Easycom: yes it will work with any tv, surround sound systems are not brand specific

18-Jan-2008 Ljc: Hi, I see theres a few questions regarding xbox 360 connecting to this, can you give specifics as there doesnt seem to be any inputs other than the dmport thing.

Easycom: you would have to get a HDMI adapter to connect to xbox

24-Jan-2008 Maca: If i bought this system would i be able to use it on everything that would come through the t.v such as my xbox 360 aswell as the normal tv using the hdmi port? or does it just work on the dvd.

Easycom: the connections on this are output only

25-Jan-2008 David O'Sullivan: Is it possible to run this unit direct to the tv using a hdmi cable and therefore get surround sound for xbox, dvd etc?

Easycom: the connections on this system are output only

1-Feb-2008 fras: can you conect it to your ps3

Easycom: this is purely for playing movies and has no inputs except for some digital audio devices. you need to move up to either something like HT-SS1100 or HT-SF1100 and have a stand alone DVD player

2-Feb-2008 Sid: I have chased scart leads ONLY into my wall and hung my tv on the wall, i realise now i made a mistake doing this. so without an HDMI lead and only scarts can i still connect my 360 and get 5.1 sound ? i also have a sky plus box, could i plug a scart splitter into this then my skyplus box and 360 into the splitter. is this the best way ?

Easycom: nogt through this system as it only has HDMI connection

5-Feb-2008 MJ: HOW DOCONNET THIS TO MY PS3 PLEASE I REALLY WANT DECENT SOUND

Easycom: Yo can't

16-Feb-2008 MrT: Hi can i listen to my tv through the home theatre systen if so how do i connect it up. thanx

Easycom: no you can't connect

17-Feb-2008 J0E: Hi, I really dont understand how to get a 360 to work.. please help!! Do I need a 360 that has HDMI.. because mine is component. Please could you tell me exactly how to set up. Thankyou so much, J0E

Easycom: you can't use this system to connect to your Xbox as it doesn't have any inputs

22-Feb-2008 RobbieWilliam: Hi, could you confirm the DAV-DZ230 definitely plays DivX video please? This is what I particularly want but the manufacturers instructions seem to suggest this won't work for UK/USA models?... page 6 on: http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/2895965131.pdf Thanks

Easycom: no it doesn't

3-Apr-2008 Dan: It must get boring hearing the same question all the time but here it is again..i have a bravia hdtv and my x box is set up via hdmi which i would also like in surrond will this 230 do the job?

Easycom: Sorry no, this is designed for playing disks only has no inputs. You need to go down the route of HT-SS1100 or HT-SF1100. these 2 are the entry level systems that will allow you to connect external devices

1-May-2008 Viper32: PLEASE TELL ME EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS ITEM AND THE XBOX 360 EG CAN I PLAY GAMES WITH THE SOUND COMING OUT OF THE HOME CINEMA???? IF YES HOW WOULD I SET IT UP EXXACTLY? AND DOES THIS PRODUCT PLAY HDDVDs OR JUS STANDARD DVDS????????

Easycom: This system plays standard DVDs - To connect the 360 audio to this system you would run the RCA output from the 360 directly to the system. Alternatively you could run the 360 audio output to the TV and run an audio output from your TV to the system instead.

Expand/CollapseBuying Advice

6-Nov-2007 MRA: I have Virgin HD can I get surround sound from this product for normal TV programmes and Xbox 360 not just DVD. Does the TV have to be Bravia to get all the features from this system or will it work fully with all HD TV's.

Easycom: This will work with any HD television, not sure on surround sound for Virgin HD as this will depend on their service and the program, however will work with X Box 360 and DVD.

22-Nov-2007 Jimmy: How does the Xbox 360 plug into this? There is no optical? Is there another way? Cheers

Easycom: You can run it through the television so it will play what is on the screen.

14-Dec-2007 RJW: Im currently running a media center setup, can i connect a PC to this? if so how? thanks.

Easycom: This will depend on the connections of the PC, however this does feature a line in socket which you could connect using a 3.5mm cable.
