Default Questions about : Sony HT-SS2300 Blu-ray Disc™ Home Theater System

hello

iam about to purchase
Sony HT-SS2300 Blu-ray Disc™ Matching Component Home Theater System
i read alot of positive reviews about it so i think iwill pick it

but i have some questions about it
i will be glad if u answer it

1- what does " Blu-ray Disc™ Matching Component " means ? is it mean that its originally not a blu ray system or ?

2- i read that the rear speakers arent wirless so poeple are taking about rocketfish system , what is it !! is it some kind of special speakers or what ?

3- i read some reviews saying that u can connect ur ps3 through HDMI cable to the reciver and a digital optical cable for audio from the reciver to the TV LCD , does that mean i will not connect HMDI CAble from reciver to TV
and what is the use of this cable since the audio i will be hearing is from the speakers not the TV

4- I reviewd this blu ray home theater system from amazon.com and i was about to buy it but i found a big issue which is the power Requirements.
since US uses 120V 60HZ , and since iam from middle east we use here 220V 50hz

please no body tell me to use voltage convertor because it doesnt convert the frequency too , and the frequency convertors cost arround 1000$ which is more than the double of the blu ray home theater price

so is there any chance i can get the same item from amazon by same specs i need ? any one got some experience about this issue?

this is the link of the item in amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HT-SS2300...4113485&sr=8-1

here is more specifications details about the item
http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/...52921665368399

under the spec. title you will find the numbers

can u help me plz

That just means that it matches Sony's brand of BD players. It is NOT standalone BD player but the the style matches Sony's player.
2- i read that the rear speakers arent wirless so poeple are taking about rocketfish system , what is it !! is it some kind of special speakers or what ?
It is a special converter type gadget that allows you to have rear speakers without the added mess of wires.
3- i read some reviews saying that u can connect ur ps3 through HDMI cable to the reciver and a digital optical cable for audio from the reciver to the TV LCD , does that mean i will not connect HMDI CAble from reciver to TV

Use HDMI from PS3 to receiver then HMDI from receiver to TV.
4- I reviewd this blu ray home theater system from amazon.com and i was about to buy it but i found a big issue which is the power Requirements.
since US uses 120V 60HZ , and since iam from middle east we use here 220V 50hz
?? Kind of stuck there.

please no body tell me to use voltage convertor because it doesnt convert the frequency too , and the frequency convertors cost arround 1000$ which is more than the double of the blu ray home theater price
