Active Speaker System

This unit features an Active Speaker System that provides high sound quality in a single slim unit.

This unit does not require any satellite loudspeakers or speaker cabling, which are normally associated with conventional surround sound systems.

Multi-function Remote Control

The supplied remote control can be used to control the TV connected to this unit.

The remote control has a TV hotkey that enables you to perform various operations with the simple press of a button.

You can adjust the volume, change the channel or customize the navigation menu of the TV using this Multi-function Remote Control.

Special Sound Field mode

You can select from three different sound field modes (NEWS, CINEMA and MUSIC) depending on the type of the source you want to enjoy.

Compatibility with the Technologies

This unit employs decoders compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS (Digital Theater Systems) and SFE (Sound Field Effect).

???Dolby Digital

This is the standard audio signal format used on DVDs and other purely digital media.

This surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio of up to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a directional and more realistic effect.

???DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides a discrete 5.1 CH digital audio signal for both music and movie contents and uses less compression than Dolby Digital for richer sound.

???SFE (Sound Field Effect) Using 32bit Audio Digital Signal Processing

Provides more realistic surround sound with normal stereo audio sources.

Wireless Subwoofer (HT-WS1G/HT-WS1R only)

Samsung???s wireless module does away with cables running between the main unit and the subwoofer. Instead, the subwoofer connects to a compact wireless module that communicates with the main unit.
