The HT-SF470 5.1 Channel Surround Sound System from Sony is a full 1000 watt 5.1 channel home theater in a box (minus the 2 missing rear speakers). The subwoofer, which is also a major contributor to the overall system sounds pumps out the deep bass that helps make adventure movies and console games so much fun.
With three HDMI inputs audio and video will go from source to set in pure digital form for the highest quality possible. In fact, HDMI is compatible with x.v.Color, which can display more than a billion colors. It smooths out banding that can occur even in HD signals. You can't get a more vivid and lifelike picture.
You can control the components hooked up to it without having to power it on. It's called standby pass through. It's especially effective if your TV set is compatible with Sony's BRAVIA Sync. That's their brand name for their implementation of the HDMI CEC standard. HDMI CEC allows you to control all your HDMI CEC devices from a single remote.
Your SF470 can output standard Blu-ray HD audio (Linear PCM) but it can also decode a half dozen or so surround sound systems and apply other audio enhancements. You can send audio to up to 10 rooms from a single SF470. Just add an optional Sony S-AIR Card to it and place optional S-AIR receiver/speaker systems in each room. It's great for parties when you want to listen to music throughout the house.
With all of the fantastic and useful features packed into the SF470 you don't think Sony would forget about all of the music you've got on your portable music players do you? That's what its Digital Media Port is for. Plug in a DMP adapter (sold separately) and access music from your iPod, Bluetooth device or your laptop.
