Buyers opinion.
This system will do far more than I need it for. The key reason for this purchase was HD surround sound from the PS3 and it seems I've got it. I searched for ages but for all of you now with a PS3 that (like me) wonder will this work. Yes it will. I have hooked the TV up from the HDMI from the PS3 and Fed the sound from the PS3 via an Optical cable into the theatre kit. It is boomtastic and without exageration Blue Rays Discs sound like your in the movie.
It was straight forward to set up - Just plug in the mic and press the auto set up button on the control; Place the mic where you sit and it will balance the speakers.
The system is quiet and can be closed in a unit without the worry of overheating (Unlike the PS3).
Notes: I couldnt get the sound to work at all using HDMI and hooking it up using the Optical cable meant I had to set the Theatre to the SAT input rather than BRDVD one. (But this doesn't cause any running problems, it was just a moment of unexpected silence until I read this input is set aside for SATelite and switched it over) .Depending on the DVD, you sometimes have to tweak the PS3 or Theatre sound settings to get full 5.1 from all the speakers but you get the hang of how to do it and its a quick and easy pressing of a couple of buttons.
Conclusion:
As long as your TV has a HDMI in and you buy an optical cable you will get 5.1 at its best from this theatre set.
