Another Sony product with a high WAF is usually striking, unimposing or easy to conceal, and that’s why the Sony Black DAV-IS10 home cinema system should get the green light with minimal commotion. The Sony black DAV-IS10 micro home theatre system has a very smooth and stylish look, and is based on an easy-to-use mechanism. Positioned at the center of the system is a gloss-black control center, which houses the DVD/CD/MP3 player and an FM/AM radio tuner.  Sony black DAV-IS10 DVD Home Cinema System has five tiny boasts satellite speakers, each one the size of a golf ball, which makes them modest, discrete and easy to mount on the wall. But despite their size, Sony black DAV-IS10 reckons they deliver the sort of powerful sound quality offered by much bigger speakers, as the 450W total power rating suggests. Their build quality is impressive too, with each speaker made from solid, weighty materials.

But it’s not just the speakers that make this system easy on the eye. The robust main DVD unit is small, compact and finished in sumptuous gloss black, with a row of illuminated touch-sensitive controls on top and a front loading disc slot. The system also comes with a similarly styled active subwoofer, capable of producing 2 x 100W of midrange and bottom-end power.

On the back of the unit is a useful range of connections, chief among which is an HDMI output. It’s joined by component and composite video outputs, plus optical and coaxial digital audio inputs, which come in handy if you want to enjoy 5.1 surround from a Sky+ box or separate DVD deck.

Inside the system is a decent range of features, including video upscaling to 720p and 1080i, but sadly not 1080p. The main unit plays DVD, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW, DVD+R, CD and CD-RW discs, and will read JPEG, MP3 and DivX files. As a nifty bonus, the main unit boasts a Digital Media Port, which lets you connect a variety of optional Sony-made adapters - including Walkman and iPod cradles and Bluetooth or network wireless audio adapters.
