The Value Priced Home Theater System
Onkyo, the Japanese word for ‘audio’, has just released two high-value 5.1-channel home theater systems that deliver premium surround sound performance in value-priced packages. While easy to set up and operate, these all-in-one systems combine high-quality, two-way satellite speakers, a powerful subwoofer and a multi-channel A/V receiver with surround sound processing that the most seasoned home theater professional can be proud of.
The HT-SR600 package can handle a plethora of connectivity options for just about any use. For starters, the A/V receiver features three component video inputs and one output that are capable of up to 1080i/720p high definition with no degradation of picture quality. In addition, there are also three A/V inputs and two outputs that can handle component and S-Video connections, as well as three optical and one coaxial digital audio input which are compatible with the latest HD-DVD and Blu-Ray sources.
The package comes with five well designed satellite speakers, complimented by the deep bass-reducing subwoofer. The front and horizontal center channel speakers all include a pair of 3-1/4 inch cone woofers and a high-quality 3/4 inch ceramic tweeter, providing exceptionally balanced sound. The pair of surround speakers are identical, but only utilize a single woofer.
For optimal use, a full-function interactive remote control is also included, and is loaded with 8 preset crossover settings and 30 available tuner presets. The system is also iPod (and other mp3 player) compatible in both audio and video.
The system is available from Onkyo and other home theater outlets and comes in your choice of black or silver finishing. Best of all, this great package weighs in at a measly $349, with a slightly upgraded package available for $499.
For its versatility with component integration combined with sound quality at a fantastic price, this home theater system raises my envy meter to one.
