The stylish 5.1 system from Auna uses active technology to amplify audio sources of all kinds - from DVD players to MP3 players to PCs. The low-vibration wood cabinet and sidefiring bass reflex subwoofer produce a round, warm overall sound that does not distort the bass in the peak areas. Please check whether your DVD player has a 5.1 RCA output sequence prior to purchase. This is a prerequisite for 5.1 surround sound as the set does not have a built-in surround decoder.
