Reviews of the Sony HT-SS360

CNET Review
The Good: Blu-ray-ready 5.1 home theater system; three HDMI inputs; three digital audio inputs; three stereo analog audio inputs; automatic speaker calibration; satisfying sound on movies.
The Bad: Doesn't handle music well; no analog video connections; no onscreen display; iPod dock isn't included.
The Bottom Line: The Sony HT-SS360 is an inexpensive home theater system with generous HDMI connectivity and satisfying sound on movies, but don't expect it to deliver with music.
