Onkyo HT-S990THX

Onkyo and THX get a little touchy when reviewers describe the HT-S990THX as a home theater in a box HTIB, so we won't do that. It's an "integrated home-theater system" featuring a 7.1-channel A/V receiver and an amply proportioned satellite/subwoofer speaker system that dwarfs the models that come with most...

Samsung HT-X810T

If the primary appeal of soundbar speakers is based on their significant reduction of wires and clutter--as compared with 5.1-channel home theater-in-a-box systems--then Samsung's new HT-X810T soundbar should be a winner. While it's not the first single-speaker system with a built-in DVD player or a wireless subwoofer--that'd be the Philips...

HDMI eventually came to the Xbox...
