Let's spot the manufacturers who are now making a thing about design in their AV products. Sure, it's all very well to finish your equipment off in glossy piano black, but now we need TVs and sound systems which are inspired by waves and champagne flutes.
Yes, LG, I'm looking at you. First it's your wavy LCD TVs, and now it's your HT762TT home cinema system. It's a pity your naming conventions weren't as inspired as the designs.
Anyway, “the idea behind the series is to add design quality to home cinema systems that make them distinctive while still blending in with today’s homes,” said Daniel Aziz, Marketing Manager, Digital Media and Car Infotainment for LG Electronics UK.
All very nice, but what can it do?
It's a 5.1-channel system, and also features Virtual Sound Matrix technology which creates five virtual speakers, thus simulating the effect of a 10.1 system.
It features 1080p upscaling via HDMI input, has a total output of 700W, and features USB Plus for connection of other devices for media playback.
Other details are scarce at present, though it should be available sometime in the second half of this year (right about now, then), price to be confirmed.
