TV lets viewer decide who's the voice

AUSTRALIAN sports lovers will soon be able to buy the home theatre system of their dreams that has the ability to mute the commentators but still let you hear the action.

The Sony N9100 home cinema system, which is expected to be released in Australia in June, has a football mode designed to enhance the sounds of the action and the crowd but eliminate the commentary.

Sony said its engineers developed the mode by wiring up the Morumbi stadium in Brazil, which has a capacity of 140,000 people.

While it is called the football mode, Sony said it would work with any sport by eliminating the voices on the middle audio channel and leaving the background sound.

For rugby league fans, that means keeping Ray Warren or "special commentator" Tom Waterhouse quiet while still hearing the Queenslander chant in the crowd on State of Origin night.

For fans of the Australian Open tennis, the system is designed to mute the endless plugs for Channel Seven shows but retain the atmosphere of the on-court grunts.

The home theatre system also uses Magnetic Fluid Speaker technology, which NASA designed during the space race to magnetise rocket fuel to make it easier to move around in zero gravity.

In the N9100 system, the magnetic fluid is used in the speakers to make them more energy efficient and increase the sound quality.

The N9100 Blu-Ray system, with 1000W speakers, also has streaming music, video-on-demand and catch-up TV services.
