The HT-CT100 is a soundbar home theater system from Sony composed of a slim main speaker and a dedicated subwoofer. With a Sony S-Master digital amplifier, HDMI connectivity (3 inputs and 1 output) and digital audio inputs, the Sony HT-CT100 eliminates the need for a separate audio-video receiver.
The system’s soundbar is a bass-reflex, magnetically shielded main speaker measuring approximately 31.5 x 2.7 x 2.6 inches (W x H x D). The separate bass reflex subwoofer, also magnetically shielded, measures 6.3 x 9.7 x 14.2 inches (W x H x D).
The S-Master amplifier supplies 250 watts RMS (50 watts x 3 plus 100 watts for the subwoofer) of total power. The system features Dolby Digital, Dolby ProLogic and DTS decoders. With Sony’s S-Force surround technology, surround sound is produced from just the soundbar. Unlike other soundbars, the HT-CT100 does not bounce sound off of walls to simulate surround sound; it instead uses advanced digital processing to produce rear sounds.
Setting up the HT-CT100 is made simple via Sony’s Digital Cinema Auto Calibration and the included microphone. The HT-CT100 also gives the user 6 sound modes to choose from: AFD, Cinema, Sports, Game, Music and Personal Audio.
The Sony HT-CT100 features HDMI Active Intelligence to easily switch between different components such as a Blu-ray player and a next-gen gaming console. The system also offers Linear Pulse Code Modulated Audio (LPCM) playback through HDMI.
Other notable features of the HT-CT100 include Sony’s Digital Media Port, Bravia Sync and Portable Audio Enhancer technologies.

Good alternative if you dont want to run wires
Reviewer: Buyzillion.com30 April 2009- Overall 8
I recently bought this system replacing my old Sony HT system with 5 speakers. I had wires crossing the room from under my rug and speaker stands for two surround speakers across the TV which was very inconvinient Sound : I replaced it with this soundbar system. I have used it for one week now (as of 04/30/2009). Its not 100% surround sound i.e. sometimes you might hear a particular sound which you think should come from behind or above your head will come from right or... Read more

Having recently purchased a new big screen TV, I found the sound lacking that mid and lower end punch needed for realistic viewing experiences. I feel that sound is at least 40 percent of the total package when watching TV or movies. I also wanted ... Read more

Perfect!

"I love this speaker! It sits perfectly in front of my new Sony 40" LCD TV. The woofer is bigger than I expected - I see it as the equivalent of a tall PC tower. But it sits nicely on the floor next to my entertainment center and has a nice display to let me know what mode I am in. Is the sound AMAZING? Well, no - after all, it is only 2.1. HOWEVER, the system is absolutely perfect for those of us who don't want speakers sitting on every solid surface and just want a... Read more

I like the design of this sound bar but the sound is not what I expected. It sound like my TV. I need a little more kick so I returned the unit to Sears within 2 weeks of purchase but Sears charge me 15% re-stocking fee even I returned with the original box, and containing all original product packaging and accessories and looked like it had never been opened. After more then 10 years of shopping online this is my first experience being charge for 15% re-stocking fee.... Read more

Bought this speakers last April 26,2008 & I have to say I was impressed with the sound quality despite being only 3.1. The whole speaker system is small enough that it doesnt take a lot of space. It has ample connectivity & set-up was fairly easy & straightforward. Id like a more extensive control for adjusting the sound & bass though. Works with my Harmony universal remote. Overall, this is a very good speaker system & serve as a good alternative to reduce the clutter... Read more
