In a perfect world, everyone would own a high-end 7 piece home theater surround sound system in their living room. In reality, many of us just don't have the space (nor the budget) to install a 7 piece system. Even if we do, installing 6 speakers and a bulky sub-woofer can be quite a daunting task.
Fortunately, there is a host of compact sound systems out there for us to choose from. Most of them consist of 2 speakers that does a pretty good job in producing a high quality surround sound output. One of my favorite model is the Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar. This is a two piece system that are made out of one speaker bar and a sub-woofer.
The Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar is the perfect combination of simplicity and performance. Its subtle and sleek design enables the sound bar to be discreetly installed without interfering with the aesthetics of the room, whether is is tucked below or in front of the TV. The sound bar produces great surround sounds, matching those of more expensive models, thanks to the S-Force Front Surround Sound technology from Sony.
The sub-woofer has a built in amplifier so there is no need to get a separate amplifier to complement these speakers. Considering its size, the audio quality and volume that can be reached is quite remarkable. Setting up the speakers was pretty easy. The Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar has 3 HDMI ports that can be hooked up directly to your TV ,DVD or Blu-ray player. If you are looking for an affordable, high-quality sound system, the Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar is clearly the winner.
