A small footprint doesn't have to mean small sound. Sony's 70-watt-per-channel HT-DDW660 home theater delivers dynamic, full-bodied surround sound from a simple, compact package. Consisting of an audio/video receiver and a complete 5.1-channel speaker package, the HT-DDW660 accepts stereo analog and direct digital bitstreams from DVD players, satellite receivers, and DVRs while processing everything from DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1 discrete surround signals to Dolby Pro Logic II, which generates multichannel surround from any stereo source--movie or music. The system's onboard 32-bit surround processor also features Sony's own Digital Cinema Sound System (Cinema Studio EX), broadening your surround listening possibilities.
Easy to assemble, the system includes all requisite cabling, including a subwoofer cable and a coaxial digital-audio interconnect for stereo or surround signals. (Depending on your DVD player or other associated gear, however, you may require an optical digital-audio cable for true surround sound--compatible but not included.)
Three composite-video inputs offer accompanying analog-audio inputs, accommodating most audio/video components and granting convenient AV switching: just channel the AV signals from your DVD player, VCR, and cable box (for instance) to the receiver, then route a single composite-video cable from the receiver's monitor output to your television. You'll need to supply your own composite-video cables, and if you have an older TV you may require a video modulator to convert the receiver's composite-video (yellow RCA jack) signal to an RF signal (which uses a thicker, threaded jack).
The included speakers cover left, right, center, and left/right surround, along with a 70-watt powered subwoofer with a bass port for heightened low-frequency slam. A host of radio presets (20 FM, 10 AM) put all your favorite stations (and then some) right at your fingertips, and the receiver's amplifier uses discrete output transistors for clean, quality power.
Optional mounting brackets or speaker stands (models WS-WV10D and WS-FV11D, respectively) simplify speaker placement, the assumption being that you'll want to place the center-channel speaker atop your television for optimal dialogue matching. All speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent distortion when placed on or near your TV.
What's in the Box
STR-K660P audio/video receiver, SS-VE66P speaker package, SS-WMSP66 subwoofer, a user's manual, all requisite speaker cable, a monaural RCA subwoofer interconnect, a coaxial digital-audio interconnect, and a Remote Commander remote control (model RM-466).
Customer Review: Great for a mid-size room
I've owned this system for two years now, and there hasn't been one issue with it...it's rock-solid. It runs cool, and looks great too, more on this later. If I have any crit at all, it would be that mounting brackets for the speakers are not included. There was not even a recommended part number in the documentation. I bought a generic set and they worked just fine. The speaker cabs are MDF, so screws fit snugly. I'm using this in my modest basement theater, and it shakes the whole house, very robust. Honestly, I can't imagine needing more power than this unless you're almost deaf. In fact, the fetching Mrs. Brew is constantly suggesting that we turn it down. Configuration is a breeze, and the remote is easy to understand, although it is not backlit. Imagine my delight when 18 months later I bought a Sony DVP-NS75H DVD player and it was an exact matched component! Matching size, front-panel display and connections. Just hooked up an optical cable between the two and was in business. As an audio professional, I could not be more delighted with the performance of this system at this incredible price.
