What's Included

Included in the set are two right speakers, two left speakers, a center speaker, a non-directional sub-woofer, a control pod, and a converter for TV/DVD/gaming console sound outputs. Set up instructions are included within the User’s Guide, but those too lazy to read have the option of looking at the top flaps for an all-picture step-by-step.

Setting up the system is pretty simple, although a bit tedious, as is any 5.1 system. Set up consists of connecting all the speakers to the sub-woofer, which connects to both the power supply and to the sound source. Finally, connecting the control pod allows the listener to power up the system and start using it.
