Sony announces the new RHT-G500 integrated TV stand, which fits into the line-up below the existing RHT-G900 and G1500, is designed for use with 32 to 40-inch TVs.

The RHT-G500 uses a 3.1-channel sound system, with center, left and right speakers and subwoofer built into the TV stand. Using S-Force PRO Front Surround technology, the RHT-G500 creates a soundfield that not only fills the room, but also envelops listeners in breathtaking surround sound effects. This means you enjoy great surround sound without rear speakers or messy wires.
The RHT-G500 can accept sound from a wide range of sources: the TV, DVD players and satellite/cable/terrestrial digital set-top boxes. It even delivers high-definition sound from a Blu-ray Disc player or PS3, opening up a whole new world of high-definition audio.
To make the connection of a complete system as simple as possible, the RHT-G500 has three HDMI inputs and a monitor output, and these can pass through superb high-definition video from a Blu-ray Disc player to one of Sony’s latest BRAVIA LCD TVs.

The RHT-G500 also allows you to connect portable players, Bluetooth devices and even a Wi-Fi network, to enjoy your music through its amplification and speakers. It’s all made possible by the DIGITAL MEDIA PORT and its range of modular adapters, while a built-in Portable Audio Enhancer system will also improve the sound quality of tracks stored on these mobile music devices.
