What u think? 
 
I was going to get a dvd player for £65, speakers for £100 and amp for about £100 so this is all in 1 and has saved me bit of cash! got £50 off as well cos had a voucher that work gave me 
 
am i right to think that a an external hardrive can be linked to this to grab films/pictures etc?

Are the speakers actually wireless then? Do they need batteries?

If that manages to maintain the same sound quality as when wired, then that's cool

Don't think they are wireless from the amazon link, because you can buy a wireless rear speaker link thing. 
 
The bluetooth is just for adding stuff to it, e.g. Can play music from you phone through the DVD player. 
 
That's what i think from reading the link anyway

Yip bluetooth is just used for playing music from phones and stuff. 
 
Mum and dad have a sony system with wireless back speakers, uses infra red but the brears still need to be plugged into a power socket and a wire between them.

It is useless unless you can situate it somewhere nobody will ever break the beam.

Don't think the one that adds-on to the samsung is infra-red, says wireless. 
 
There was a phillips system out ages ago that had wireless rear speakers, pretty sure that wasn't infra-red either

Infra red is wireless   
 
I don't know what methods other ones use though, i'm sure there must be one that uses RF.

Yeah you have to buy the wireless module which is about another £80  
This has to be plugged into the mains so its not really 'wireless' its bollocks really 
The wireless box works via RF IIRC
