- Sony HT-CT100
- It's a familiar story in consumer electronics: start with a luxurious, expensive, and exclusive product category, and within just a few years, you'll see a sea of imitators delivering the same basic item with more features, less money, and--ideally--better performance. Take single-speaker audio. Once the exclusive domain of Yamaha Digital...

- Best Buy Black Friday ad leaks online. Here are the HDTV and Blu-ray deals.
- For electronics fans, the Holy Grail of Black Friday ads is the one from Best Buy, which can list more deals on laptops and home theater stuff than general retailers like Wal-mart and Target can squeeze into their circulars. Unfortunately, those deals are never as good as you hope—is this...

- Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Blu-ray Players/Home Theater Systems
- With prices for both players and discs plunging, this may be the holiday season for Blu-ray. Already online movie streaming is making inroads—even on Blu-ray players themselves. Some of these picks are integrating on-demand video services into their feature sets, hoping to keep themselves relevant in...

- Onkyo HT-RC160
- Photo gallery:Onkyo HT-RC160Comparing the features of competing AV receivers is already a difficult chore, but many manufacturers, such as Denon and Yamaha, invite more complexity by offering two lines of nearly identical AV receivers: a custom-install-friendly line and a more-consumer-based line. For better or worse, Onkyo has followed suit with...

- LG LHB953
- Photo gallery:LG LHB953When Blu-ray HTIBs first hit the market, they really didn't make sense as a product type. They were slow, and the value just wasn't there, as it was easy to put together superior systems from separate components. One year later, everything has changed; there are several excellent HTIBs...

- Panasonic SC-BT300
- Photo gallery:Panasonic SC-BT300Panasonic released one of the first Blu-ray home-theater-in-a-box HTIB systems in 2008, the SC-BT100, but we didn't bother to review it. The reason: it was still a Profile 1.1 disc player and its high price tag made it easier to put together a great system of separate components...

- Panasonic SC-BT200
- Photo gallery:Panasonic SC-BT200Although the technology debuted in 2006, for many consumers Blu-ray still feels like brand-new tech. That's why a home-theater-in-a-box HTIB system like the Panasonic SC-BT200 feels like such an incredible deal--with a street price as low as $450, you get a 7.1 speaker system plus a slimline AV...

- Sony DAV-HDX589W
- The big upgrade in home-in-a-box systems for 2009 is a built-in Blu-ray player. But those models start at $500. If you don't want to spend that much--and you're not ready for Blu-ray--there are still plenty of home theater systems with "just" DVD. Sony has three such models, each of which...

- Sony HT-SS360
- Photo gallery:Sony HT-SS360Home-theater-in-a-box systems have been around forever, but the latest marketing angle is the "Blu-ray ready HTIB." The new phrase simply means that the system consists of a surround-sound-speaker system and an AV receiver, so you only need to add a Blu-ray player to complete your home theater. The...

- Onkyo HT-S9100THX
- Most of the home-theater-in-a-box HTIB systems that we review provide the convenience of an all-in-one package, but come up short on features and flexibility. Leave it to Onkyo to offer up the HT-S9100THX--a highly customizable HTIB that offers countless features and the kind of sound quality that is usually...

- First Black Friday ads show up online: 50-inch Samsung plasma for $899.99
- Try as they might, big retailers can't stop their ads for Black Friday otherwise known as the day after Thanksgiving and unofficial start of the holiday shopping season from leaking online often weeks in advance. This year, Sears has the dubious distinction of being the first major retailer of HDTV...

- Sony Bravia DAV-X10 2.1 Channel Audio System
- The home-theater-in-a-box HTIB market is about as commoditized a category as you'll find when shopping for consumer electronics, but Sony's stayed in the game by offering a line of all-in-ones at a wide array of price points. For the 2007 line, the company retained its generally sexy design schemes and...

- Philips HTS6500
- By combining a DVD player, a receiver, and speakers into a single product, home-theater-in-a-box systems HTIBs simplify the process of purchasing and installing a home theater. Although a full-blown home-theater system is often the best solution for optimal sound quality, setting up five speakers and a subwoofer--let alone a full-scale...

- Sony HT-7000DH
- Quick Take: The Sony HT-7000DH is a component-based home-theater-in-a-box system that offers a five-disc DVD/CD/SACD player. The component based nomenclature refers to the fact that the receiver is separate from the five-disc player, which means that it takes up more space than smaller all-in-one lifestyle systems, but this makes it...

- Sony DAV-FX10
- Home-theater-in-a-box systems HTIBs are all about delivering home-theater surround sound in a single lifestyle-friendly package. In general, we've found the recent incarnations of Sony's Dream system line of HTIBs to be an effective mixture of stylish design and decent sound quality, albeit with a premium price tag. Thus, the interest...
