"Good, affordable system"
4.0 starson by VictusMaximusPros: Works with Xbox360
Cons: Maybe not so good for large rooms
Summary: If you live in an apartment, condo or have a mid-size living room that needs a system, this'll work.
I purchased the system because I live in a condo, needed something for my HDTV/Xbox 360, didn't want to spend a ton of cash, and my better half does not like wires and clutter.
The sound bar is small and powerful. The bass is impressive. Default settings are nice, and you get a pretty crisp range of sound considering the unobtrusive size of the unit. I set it up in five minutes and played with GTA IV, Halo 3 and a few movies. All sounded much better than they did off the HDTV's speakers.
It may not be true surround sound, but for a smaller place, this bar is an exceptionally solid value. And unless you're a huge audiophile, this system is a good value. You probably won't find a better system at this price that doesn't have a lot of wires.

Hey, you say that you hooked up your xbox 360 to this without a problem...but it does not have any Y-component hookups, only HDMI. Does this mean that you have a 360 with HDMI? If not, then how does it work? I have an original xbox without HDMI hookup and just wanted to make sure this will work with it. Thanks.

I'm considering the Sony HTCT100 (for use in my motorhome) which you reviewed on CNET. My SAT receiver doesn't have HDMI. If I follow the directions for non-HDMI hookup (audio to CT100 and video to TV), what happens to the output from the CT100 if i use an HDMI cable to the TV - is there a problem with SAT video getting to TV with optical cable from SAT and also sound/video with HDMI cable from CT100??
Thanks in advance for your help.
David
