Sony DAVHDX589W 5.1-channel black BRAVIA DVD home theater system

Surround yourself, wirelessly

True, the enveloping, immersive experience offered by full 5.1-channel surround sound is worth the exquisite hassle of running wires to the rear surround speakers at the back of your living room. But, imagine how much more blissful surround would be with speaker wire completely out of the picture. Using integrated S-AIR wireless technology, the Sony DAV-HDX589W 5.1-channel DVD home theater system offers wireless operation of the rear surround speakers. The included S-AIR wireless module fuels each full-range rear speaker with 144W of power for a startlingly real surround sound experience.

The surround sound DVD home theater experience

Sony's DAV-HDX589W DVD home theater system serves up an advanced audio and video experience. First, a full 5.1-channel surround sound speaker system complete with powered subwoofer and fueled by a whopping 1000W of power brings the multi-channel surround sound found on many DVD movies to life, enveloping you in clear, detailed sound. Second, while the five-disc DVD player supports playback of DVD, CD, MP3, and SA-CD media, it also upscales DVD video to near-HD 720p and 1080p levels via the single HDMI output, delivering a stunning video spectacle optimized for your flat panel HDTV. Finally, a host of audio and video connections — including component- and composite-video output and digital optical and coaxial audio input — make the DAV-HDX589W a versatile home theater component.

That's right: iPod ready

Bring on the iPod. Thanks to the included iPod dock, integrating your iPod personal music player into the Sony DAV-HDX589W is a cinch. Connect the dock to the DVD player/receiver unit, plug your iPod into the dock, and you're enjoying your favorite portable tunes right in your living room.

Included with purchase

The following items are included with the purchase of the Sony DAV-HDX589W: Easy Setup disc, iPod dock, remote (RM-ADU007A), and speaker cables.

This is my 2nd sony system. Set up was pretty standard if you follow the guide. I did have questions with the speaker configuration and an issue with the system playing regular TV programming. I called Vanns tech support and they got me through it, Thanks Harlean!, you were awesome. I love the system, sounds great, looks great and easy to maneuver through the programs. I also appreciate talking to people at Vanns who speak english that I can understand.... All my electronic purchases will be through Vanns

Excellent product. Love the wireless rear speakers. Very easy to set up. Right price. Would recommend highly. The drawback that remote only works with Sony TVs only.

We purchased a sony theatre system for Christmas this year and are enjoying it very much. It is a wireless and was very easy to setup. The movies are terrific, just like being in a real theatre, but better because you can enjoy it in your own house all the time. The sound is awesome!

For the price of the product it is working great. Very easy to setup and works great with all functions. Only problem is that the sub does not hit that hard for some of the action movies.
