Blu-ray inside and out

Take advantage of the advanced audio capabilities of Blu-ray Disc movies with this dynamic surround sound system. The HTS-S360 features a sleek, slim receiver with all you need to enjoy the dramatic sound quality you crave. A perfect complement to your Blu-ray player and advanced gaming platforms, this you'll appreciate this system's simplicity in set-up and connectivity. Three HDMI™ inputs are included for connecting HD sources with a single cable and directly accessing them through the remote control. One-button control is also available with BRAVIA Sync™ technology, maintaining the proper settings for each component and allowing you to focus on the entertainment.

BRAVIA Theatre Sync&trade means simplicity

This is true 'one-button' control. Taking the lead in the next step beyond simple audio and video transmission functions, Sony has developed BRAVIA Theatre Sync&trade, featured on your new HTSS360 home theater system. In combination with select Sony BRAVIA video and audio products, single-command, multiple control functions can be transmitted via HDMI. By pressing a single button on the remote, such as PLAY, all audio and video components will turn on and the BRAVIA television will turn on as well before switching to the appropriate video input. Get ready to experience your video and audio media like never before.

The HTSS360 isn't picky, it just wants the best. . . for you

Equipped with HDMI "Active Intelligence", you might start to think that the receiver in your HTSS360 is psychic, but it isn't. . . or is it? HDMI "Active Intelligence" allow your receiver to detect and receive the best video and audio signals possible from all connected devices. This ensures that connection and performance are as simple as hooking up a wire. And when we say 'a wire' we're serious — "Active Intelligence" transmits both video and audio through a single HDMI cable.

Ideal sound comes from ideal speaker placement

The behavior of the sound coming from your speakers can be greatly influenced by the internal shape of your living room. With this phenomenon in mind, Sony has equipped your new HTSS360 with Digital Cinema™ Auto Calibration. By simply placing the included auto calibration microphone in the place from which you most often listen to audio and pushing a single button, speaker position, distance and delays are automatically calibrated. Sony's Digital Signal Processing uses feedback between the microphone and receiver to optimize sound settings. Once this simple procedure is completed, you'll be experiencing sound like never before.

Accessorize with the Digital Media Port

Your new HTSS360's Digital Media Port (DMP) gives you the ability to play back music from a variety of select sources with the aid of a few accessories. Connect DMP accessories to play back music from Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones, networked computers or select iPod® or Network Walkman™ digital music players (optional accessories sold separately). The DMP accessories include a PC Client Ready device (TDM-NC1), Bluetooth receiver (TDM-BT1) and docking stations compatible with select Network Walkman players (TDM-NW1) and iPod products (TDM-iP1).

Stay at home with your portable — the portable audio enhancer

The HTSS360 is ideal for today's portables. A powerful Digital Signal Processor expands the quality of sound from any connected device. Simplified front-side audio and video connections make it easy to play portables through the receiver. In short, your new HTSS360 and ultimate-connectivity are, well, synonymous.

Four, yes, count 'em, four HDMI connections!

Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, your new Sony HTSS360 features 3 HDMI inputs and 1 output. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI.
