What type of Home Cinema System is compatible with a Microsoft X-Box?


Have a Sony Bravia TV and X-Box and am looking to byt a home cinema sound system that will work with both. I have already discovered Sony ones aren't X-Box compatible!

Any type of Home Theater system is compatible with Xbox as long as they have the same type of audio input and output.

Home Cinema Design

There's nothing better than being able to come home to a luxury home cinema after a hard day's work. You can enjoy your favourite movies in the ultimate setting, and you'll soon see that a regular TV and speakers simply won't cut it. It's all about home cinema design, installation and the products that you choose, and choosing wisely can have a huge effect on your enjoyment.

What makes a good home cinema?

A good home cinema is defined by its equipment. Your luxury home cinema should have the ultimate sound and picture quality possible, and that means that you need to invest in the best models going. The right speakers can make an enormous amount of difference and can mean that you hear exactly what the director intended, and it's always recommended that you get compact loudspeakers and subwoofers if you really want to enjoy your home cinema at its best.

But, the specifics of home cinema design will be equally as important. You need to think about the size of the room, its acoustics and the furniture that's going to be in it, as everything can have an impact on your overall listening enjoyment. The only real way to get the best home cinema design is to head to the experts, and that's why you need to come to us here at Gecko.

Description

VIERA Cast's assorted online content just keeps getting better - in addition to the popular contents such as YouTube and Picasa Web Albums, it now offers Pandora Internet Radio, movies streamed from Netflix, exciting sports from FOX Sports, and tweeting web communications with Twitter. No PC required. By using a combination of real speakers and virtual speakers, a more natural and smoother sound can be enjoyed. You'll notice the difference, epecially in an action scene - you'll feel like you're sitting in the center of a true cinema theater. With the new bamboo cone speakers, the sound becomes much more responsive. Vocals are more pure and cleaner, and the dialog is crisper and easier to understand than ever before. The SC-BT330 is compatible with a new feature of ARC (Audio Return Channel). ARC allows receiving audio signals from the TV, on top of the preexisting HDMI function of sending audio/video signals to the TV with just one cable. This new feature will simplify the connection by eliminating an audio cable connection between the TV audio output and the main unit's audio input.
