Marcussy 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2009 I am currently scouting around for a home theatre system. Most of the HTS that I saw are 5.1 which I am not looking at because of the wires & space constraint. So now looking at soundbars or 2.1 HTS. Any recommendations from anyone? My budget is 1k and below. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripples 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 yes, it should be the older model. most places are selling 6100 below $1K now. if you know someone who works at philips, you can get their staff price for 8140 at $1K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marcussy 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 I realised that the price for 5.1 are similar to some 2.1 systems. So if i buy 5.1 and put everything at the console, will it be ok? Oh will it defeat the purpose of having a 5.1? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sound's pretty decent and you get the practical and space-saving too. Can check it out at Giant or those neighbourhood dealers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
