3.0 out of 5 stars "Built in wifi" is not true, 28 Nov 2011

I bought one of these at the same time as buying a 40inch samsung TV

Both have "built in wifi" written in the description, but with the surround sound unit you have to buy a dongle to plug into the back to use wifi.
Which is like saying my 3 bedroom house has 4 bedrooms... if I pay for an extension!

If you have to buy a dongle, then it is not built in!

It also seems that if you use HDMI with ARC (Audio return channel) so that the channels selected on your TV are played via the surround sound then whatever you connect via the AUX/optical will not work.

(I have Virgin media connected via optical, and DTV from the TV itself... if ARC is enabled then optical does not work unless I unplug the HDMI cable.)

Other than than the above; the system has good sound, nice small speakers and good bass.

I wouldn't say I am unhappy with the product, just disappointed that it does not do what I expected.
(they should stop calling it built-in wifi, if it is not built in!)

In terms of sound quality, specification and user friendliness I found this system very good. It will play all DVD types, 2D and 3D, and all versions of Blu-ray discs, again both 2D and 3D. The unit is Wi-Fi ready via a dongle as stated in the spec.

Speakers are very compact measuring (width/height/depth) 36x7x7cm (front centre), 14x9x7 (front L&R), 9x11x7(rear L&R) and 16x29x36 (subwoofer). The 1000 watts spec sounds like this system should shake the house down, but thankfully it doesn't. The sound is subtle and well balanced, and the controls allow quick and easy adjustments of subwoofer level and speaker volume.

Excellent product, easy to understand manual and if followed set up is simple. The remote control will also control our Samsung television, therefore you can switch it off by mistake if you are not careful. Sound switches automatically to system if switched on. Note however that you will have to sync. sound if using HD TV. Overall very pleased.
