-Onkyo LS3100 2.1 Speaker System

If space and budget considerations run a close second to sound quality when choosing a home cinema, then the neat Onkyo LS3100 2.1-channel package is worth a closer look. Your days of thin sound will be over, with SRS processing technology creating an immersive 3D soundfield using just two speakers-perfect for movies, music, and games. But the real beauty of the system lies in its convenience. For example, the control centre is pre-programmed for use with most TV remote controllers. It turns on automatically with your television and responds to volume commands from your TV remote. Two sculpted speakers-featuring a pair of 6.5 cm drivers each-can be mounted in a variety of ways on the wall or entertainment unit. The system is also gr eat for music, with Bluetooth 2.1 allowing you to stream from your smart phone, tablet, and laptop. Analogue and digital connections are included to connect a PC or CD player. Wireless implementation extends to the powered subwoofer, which can be placed anywhere in the room you like-another handy feature in what is an exceptionally useful home cinema system.

The Onkyo LS3100 is programmed to accept commands from the remote controllers of most major TV brands. The system powers up automatically when you turn on your TV, and you can adjust the volume using your usual television remote. After 5 minutes with no signal from the TV, the home cinema will switch itself off, so you don't waste power.

Whether you're an iPhone or iPad user, an Android fan, or an owner of a personal computer with Bluetooth capability, streaming music to your new home cinema system couldn't be easier. Simply pair the devices, select the track or album of your choice, and hit play. The improved data transfer capabilities of Bluetooth 2.1 +EDR ensure clear and reliable sound reproduction for all kinds of music.

The Onkyo LS 3100 comes equipped with SRS (Sound Retrieval System) Mode, which allows you to enjoy a more natural sound from stereo sources. The technology exploits the science of psychoacoustics-or how the ear pinpoints the locations of sounds in space-allowing the listener to perceive stereo sound as surround sound. Which makes for a more realistic and exciting entertainment experience

To take advantage of the low-frequency sounds in your games, movies, and music, the Onkyo LS3100 employs a powered subwoofer. This type of subwoofer draws an independent energy supply, leaving the accompanying control centre free to focus its power through the stereo speakers. Thanks to its wireless design, there's no need to run a cable back to the control centre, meaning you can place it pretty much anywhere it looks and sounds the best.

The Onkyo LS3100 2.1 speaker system includes a pair of acoustic suspension speakers incorporating twin 5 cm cones in place of the usual single driver. Don't let their compact size fool you-these robust little speakers really pack a punch. Whether you choose to hang them on a wall or set them beside your TV, be prepared for deep and detailed performance in small to medium-sized rooms.
