Panasonic home cinemas receive wireless and Blu-ray makeoverVirtual surround speakersA perfect companion for its 25mm-thin Z-series plasma TV, the SC-ZT1 which comes equipped with a pair of 2.4GHz wireless pole speakers measuring a mere 24mm wide. For fuller-bodied sound, each of these boomboxes has a subwoofer and 80W amplifier integrated in the base. However, a separate power cord is required for each unit. According to Panasonic, the set can reproduce a virtual 7.1-channel sound field using proprietary 3D audio technology. However, another set of speakers can be added to further enhance surround sound steering.As the SC-ZT1 lacks disc playback capability, you'll need to set it up with a DVD or Blu-ray player. This is catered for by two HDMI inputs and a corresponding output for an HDTV. The ports support high-resolution Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD soundtracks, but these have to be decoded by a disc player and relayed in multichannel linear PCM (LPCM) format. In addition, you'll get four more audio-only inputs: Dual digital optical compatible with legacy Dolby Digital and DTS, plus two analog equivalents for stereo sound for your external decks.
