Manufacturer's Description
Don’t be fooled by their compact size, these golf ball sized speakers deliver 450W of incredible 5.1 digital surround sound. With wireless rear speakers and a compact but powerful subwoofer, the only thing you’ll notice is the power of cinema quality sound.
Pumps out a total of 450W of room filling 5.1 digital surround sound from 5 golf ball size speakers and a floor shaking 100W subwoofer.
Built-in upscaler reads standard DVDs and generates a 1080p signal via HDMI™ cable giving you superb picture quality on your HD TV and minimising the number of connections needed.
Night Mode with Dialogue Enhancer keeps speech clear while limiting the volume of sudden sound effects – ideal for late night viewing.
Sports Mode creates a true Stadium feeling in your home. Centre speaker plays commentary while surround speakers fill the room with the roar of the crowd and the thrill of the game.
from House of Fraser to Tesco,
no one is selling it, we're sorry to say,
not 400 retailers nor anyone on eBay,
but please don't worry even if it hurts,
you can look for alternatives or
