The HW-D551 Crystal Surround Air Track Active Speaker System provides high-quality spacious sound in an unobtrusive and stylish design. The slim receiver has an integrated active speaker system, eliminating the need for the satellite speakers and messy cabling that are normally used in conventional surround sound systems. The compact subwoofer communicates wirelessly with the main unit to provide enhanced bass response without running cables across your room. The metallic silver finish on the main unit provides a splash of style that also matches silver TV bezels.

The system supports Dolby Digital and DTS digital audio to provide immersive 5.1 audio. The receiver has analog and digital audio inputs for compatibility with a variety of media players. It also offers 2 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output, allowing you to transmit high-definition audio and video over a single cable. There are 7 different sound modes that let you optimize the system's performance based on the type of content you want to enjoy. The included wireless remote can control the sound system, as well as your television. A TV hotkey lets you perform various operations with a single press.

Note! TV sound over HDMI is only available when used with an ARC-compliant TV. Regular HDMI input/output is unrestricted.
