| The Bottom Line | While it's got an attractive design, the JVC TH-F3's high price and dearth of extra features make it hard to recommend. | Samsung's HT-BD1250 home theater system has built-in Blu-ray, streaming media from Netflix and Pandora, and excellent audio and video quality, making it our top budget Blu-ray all-in-one system. | Sony's HT-CT100 soundbar/subwoofer audio system is a phenomenal value that sounds great with movies and music. | While it lacks some of the features found in more expensive home theater systems, the Onkyo HT-S3200 delivers great sound and solid performance at a bargain price. | The Sony HT-SS360 is an inexpensive home theater system with generous HDMI connectivity and satisfying sound on movies, but don't expect it to deliver with music. |
