Sony HT-DDW900 5.1-Channel DVD Home Theater System
November 17th, 2009
HT-DDW900 offers everything you need to bring out the full audio experience of your DVDs, digital cable, and other entertainment sources. The advanced A/V receiver pumps 900 watts of power (140 watts x 5, plus 200-watt sub) into its 5.1-channel configuration, while the five satellite speakers and 8-inch active subwoofer deliver authentic, immersive surround sound. And as you would expect from a modern surround product, the receiver is equipped with an array of analog and digital audio inputs and stands ready to decode Dolby Digital, DTS, and Pro Logic II formats. Perhaps the receiver’s most impressive feature, however, is its High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), which delivers uncompressed digital audio and video directly to a digital TV. The input represents the current state-of-the-art in high-definition video because the information is never converted into an analog format, and thus never has the opportunity to degrade.
Another benefit of HDMI is that it puts all the information into one cable and one easy-to-use connector. The HT-DDW900 also provides a handy HDMI-switching feature, with two HDMI inputs and one HDMI output. Properly setting up a surround sound system can be a bit of a drag, as it requires you to fidget with the location for each of the system’s speakers in order to create a proper sound field. Fortunately, the HT-DDW900’s auto calibration function simplifies the entire ordeal. To calibrate the system, simply place the included microphone in the ideal listening position, such as the center of your couch, and the system will automatically adjust for speaker placement, distance, and delays.
As a result, the system conforms to your space, not the other way around. The receiver also offers Sony’s Digital Cinema Sound processing–a technology developed in cooperation with the sound engineers at Sony Pictures Entertainment. The studio created three different sound stages, each customized for recording three different categories of audio: speech, special effects, and music. The end result was three specific digital signal processing techniques. The first is optimized for crystal-clear dialogue in dramas and comedies, the second is designed to bring out the full ground-shaking experience of action films, and the third is created for specifically for musicals, concert videos, and such.
Listeners will also dig the five bass-reflex satellite speakers–four for the front and rear channels and one for the center channel–each of which includes a 2.75-inch woofer that produces a crisp midrange. The 8-inch subwoofer, meanwhile, pumps out powerful, room-filling bass. Additional features include an AM/FM tuner with 30 presets (20 FM and 10 AM), a digital clock with a sleep timer, and a remote control. Connectivity stems from the two component video inputs and one output, four composite video inputs and two outputs, six analog audio inputs, and the digital audio inputs (one coaxial and two optical). Finally, the entire system is magnetically shielded against video interference, so you can place the speakers near you TV without distorting the picture.
The HT-DDW900 receiver measures 16.88 by 6.25 by 12.5 inches (W x H x D), while the front, rear, and center speakers check in at 6.12 by 3.75 by 4 inches each. The HT-DDW900 is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor. What’s in the Box Receiver, two front speakers, two rear speakers, center channel speaker, subwoofer, remote control, FM wire antenna, AM loop antenna, coaxial digital cord, monaural audio cord, two long speaker cords, three short speaker cords, two speaker footpads, four subwoofer footpads, two AA batteries, optimizer microphone, user’s manual.
