In one (rather large and heavy) box, you get a 7.1 channel surround sound system, a 3D Blu-ray player, and the ability to make your dumb TV ‘smart’, so you can browse the web and access apps.

In theory, it’s a fantastic idea. In practice, it’s not quite fantastic, but it’s still pretty darn good.Setting up this system ain’t easy – it’s a major hassle, actually. The lacklustre instructions, lack of diagrams and mess of cables meant it took more than an hour to get everything set up and plugged in. The left, right,and surround sound speakers are all set into four tallboy pillar stands that are about chest-high. Each pillar needs to be assembled – in the box it’s split into three pieces. But before you can connect the pillar, cables – the correct cables – have to be threaded through the stand.The stands are not stable, especially if, like most people, you have carpet in your living room. You need to find a way to pin the stands down, because they’re tall, thin, light, and the base of the stand isn’t wide enough to keep it steady. Even the tiniest push from the head of a vacuum cleaner pipe could see the demise of a beloved new speaker. Because of the way the stands are constructed, there’s no way to shorten them so that you can put them on top of your TV cabinet for greater stability, either.

When you add the fact that there are numerous cords that have to span the length of the room for this system to work, the chances of knocking a speaker over and destroying it? Remarkably high, no matter how careful you are. Of course, the speakers are designed to be tall enough that they’re at head height when you’re sitting on the couch. That’s great, but we’d rather the system be stable enough that it won’t wind up broken within weeks.But that’s where my gripes with the home theatre system end. The system is stylish and parts of it feel a bit retro despite the decidedly modern technology. It looks nice too, although its size means it’s not ideal for small apartments.The standout feature is the sound quality, which is quite incredible for a home system. I had a Blu-ray of season one of Game of Thrones handy and as it turned out, it was the perfect choice to test with. When the speakers were all set up and working properly, the experience was fantastic. When listening to the theme song, we noticed musical elements that we hadn’t noticed before.

The bass, even at relatively low volumes, had the floor vibrating at a level that left me concerned about bothering the neighbours below.The surround sound speakers, which are placed immediately to the left and right of where you sit, are there primarily for sound effects. When there are sound effects, you really, really notice. There’s a particular scene in Game of Thrones where a reprehensible character gets slapped across the face. When that scene was playing out, I was across the room making a snack, and the smack sound made me spin around, thinking something in the room had fallen or snapped.It’s nice that Samsung included the smart functionality, even though I feel that Samsung’s smart TV technology is currently somewhat lacking. I have a TV that’s a couple of years old now, but it’s just not worth upgrading, so getting smart functions without shelling out for a new TV is great. However, the ‘smart hub’ interface is quite slow to navigate, especially with the included laser-based remote control.

The web browser is the major ‘smart’ feature of the Smart Hub, and it’s flash-enabled. You can access YouTube videos from the browser, although streaming them is slower than it would be on your PC. In fact, by the time you navigate to YouTube, or any other website, with the laser remote, you could get up off the couch, boot up your PC, start up your browser, and watch a video. This is not an exaggeration. Navigating the web browser is painfully slow, especially as the Blu-ray player only seems to respond to the remote about 70% of the time.While we were able to download new apps, there’s a limit of around 250MB of storage space available for them.If you have other devices that you like to plug into your TV – media players, game consoles – you can run up to two of them through the Blu-ray player so that they’ll take full advantage of the sweet, sweet speakers. We tested this with a PlayStation 3 and a PC, and both worked with no issues.If you want to use the speakers to play music, you can plug those into the Blu-ray player too, either through the included iPod connector – which is big enough to fit an iPhone, but not an iPad – or via USB at the front.
