Setup:
Boston Acoustics has put effort into and managed to produce a great aesthetically pleasing system. Their design looks great and will easily catch any eye.
The system consists of 4 SST (Slimline Speaker Technology – thin, talland flat) satellites and an amplified 6 ½” subwoofer. Thepackage also includes 2x rear tower stands, an external transformer withpower cord, all necessary cables, a control pod, and an RCA-Phono adaptor.The setup is fairly straightforward, and includes both labels and color-codingon the back of the subwoofer and plugs. Some assembly is requiredfor the speaker pod/stands. The speakers can be either wall mounted, standmounted, or tower stand mounted (for the rear speakers). A manual is alsoincluded with the system with instructions on assembly and setup for variousinput options.

For 2.1 output: The system will require one analog output for 2.1 sound (the rear speakerswill not be used, but a virtualized Dolby Surround effect can be created).
For 4.1 Output: 2 stereo line outs for 4 speaker audio or 4-channel gaming or such as EAX and A3D.
For 5.1 (Virtualised center channel) Output: Digitalaudio for Dolby Digital 5.1 is featured with the use of an RCA/Phono digitalout on either your systems sound card or hardware DVD MPEG2 decoder.
Thespeaker system will automatically detect the connection type and adjustits output accordingly. The power LED flashes momentarily when switchingbetween modes, for example if you start playing a DVD movie or switch to2 speaker mode by turning the surround volume all the way down. The onlyindication I could see of what mode it was operating in was that the LEDwas somewhat brighter when outputting 5.1 digital audio, as opposed to2 or 4 channel stereo.

The control pod can be attached to any of the satellites, and is connectedto the subwoofer by a DIN connector. It features controls for the mastervolume, surround volume, surround balance, and subwoofer volume. What itlacks however, is a headphone or auxiliary input jack, something that asystem in this price range should have included. A remote control wouldhave been a welcome addition, but in the case of a desktop setup it ismore of a novelty than a necessity.
