Samsung HT-C6730W : I had a 10-year-old rear projection TV (it died), therefore I went with the HT-C6930W home theater w/ 3D Blu-ray player and paired it with the PN58C8000 58″ Plasma TV. a awfully smart combo indeed! With respect to the Samsung Home Theater unit – lets state the ‘pros’ initial…

Overall the elements are all ‘shiny black’ and appearance futuristic while not being gawdy. The Blu-ray player is that the brains of the system, and it’s a fine looking blue-glo when turned on through touch-sensitive icons that function buttons. Most programming is simpler done through the remote.

There are several settings obtainable on the Blu-Ray unit to tune sound and video. you will not be wanting there. several of them can work ‘just fine’ in Auto, therefore you do not got to be a genius out-of-the-box. Still, you have got the choice of tweaking them.

Let’s state the speakers – the front towers line up well sitting together with your TV at eye-level. the middle speaker sits well just under your TV screen, and also the sub-woofer on the ground. The remaining four speakers offer your rear try and facet try -OR- you’ll place one try up-front to urge ‘vertical’ sound. one in all these pairs is ‘wireless’, sort of. The Blu-ray player features a transmitter card that sends the signal to a plugged-in reciever unit. The speakers still have wires running from the reciever to every speaker. helpful if you do not need to run wires from the front to the rear of the area. Otherwise they are not abundant of an improvement over wired. That said, they still sound superb, and ‘no’ you cannot wire them into the Blu-ray player directly as a result of there are not any inputs for them on the player, therefore wireless elements had higher work. I solely bring this up as a result of on my initial unit the wireless system did not work, therefore I had to bring the complete home theater back in exchange for an additional one. Ignoring that – the speakers are superb.

The Dolby LPZII audio feature is wonderful – lovely seven.1 sound and even with HD cable most all of the stations take full advantage of it.

I already mentioned that the wireless speaker are simply a pair of of them, and there are still wires. Of course, to power speakers while not wires you wish every speaker to own it’s own power supply (either a battery, or an influence cord). So, it will eliminate running wires from front of area to back, and that is useful. Too unhealthy my initial wireless elements were unhealthy, and that i worry that within the future, if they fail once more, i will got to come back the complete system (not simply the wireless) for repair.

Some of the video and sound settings appear to fight with one another. they need a feature to level sound when switching TV channels (so the quantity will not suddenly increase on you), however that turns off the LPZII feature. Similar issue with video. But, this can be the exception, and most all options do not fight with one another.

Overall, this can be a good system, and it integrates well with the most recent flat screen TVs, plays Blu-ray well, and even works with the Samsung 3D glasses (I got a pair of pairs and ‘monsters vs. aliens’ 3D without charge as a result of I bought each Samsung TV and 3D Blu-ray player as a combo). they ought to simply embrace this ‘starter kit’ with each 3D Blu-ray system. that may get additional individuals to shop for 3D movies.

Summing up – this can be a good system, simply hope it does not want service as a result of it is a monster to come back. and that they ought to build the 3D glasses a part of the package.
