Hi Folks,
Anybody using Philips HTS 8140 SoundBar...?
I'm intended to connect it thru Astro Byond especially.

hi, I am using it now..connected using coaxial..

how much & where do you bought it...?
how about the sound system...?

U can use the normal RCA/AV cable..and from the soundbar switch to digital coax..

how much do u bought it...?

cannot remember but its very cheap..less than rm10

ohh no..i mean how much u bought the Philips Soundbar HTS 8140...?

oo..bought almost 4 month ago from Harvey Norman..this was a display set and still look and working good..with ipod slot and bracket..they sell for 1400 but add another 150 for another 2 years extension warranty..how about yours??

how is the soundstage?

Philips claim this is 5.1 but for me the actual 5 speakers are better..but overall i am very happy with this unit..the bass and the sound also good..linked with my ACRyan player via optical and also good enough for me..the main reason for me still the look and no more mess with the wires..

I'm end up buying Sony soundbar HT CT150 [Rm999]....original price if not istaken abour Rm3200 for Philips HTS8140....

yah..heard that model perform well too...but then why u asked about HTS8140??

soundbars need a nice room to fully enjoy its pseudo surround...if your room is wide and open like living rooms then no point...

yah agree..

I'm almost bought HTS 8140 when I was searching home theater system to complement Astro Byond,until Sony HT CT150 came into picture...

Hows the performance? ok ka? thinking to another one for my bedroom..

for me sounds ok coz its my first HT system/soundbar system...
