$250.00 Est. at Amazon

from nick from wi, www.circuitcity.com
music and movies all sound great.
from www.amazon.com
hearing is believing: properly set up 5.1 channel multi-directional sound adds a completely new dimension to movies and music.
from www.amazon.com
this one has two which is nice and the sub on the kenwood would distort while listening to movies and just music.
from www.amazon.com
the receiver has a second speaker section that could be used for a seperate room or outdoor speakers for music.

Sony HT-CT100 Theater System

$272.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
it has a very great sound system for any moives, music, or watching online movies from a laptop.
from www.bestbuy.com
luckily, i use a digital cable tuner in my bedroom, which gives me access to digital music channels for those times that i want to use it specifically for music.4) the remote isn't programmable.
from www.bestbuy.com
wish it had a bit more power on max volume for playing music loud, but that's to be expected due to the number of speakers and wattage.
from www.bestbuy.com

Sony BRAVIA DAVHDX275 Theater System

$315.00 Est. at Amazon

from fortran from los angeles, ca, www.circuitcity.com
plus, the sound quality is better.only drawbacks - only 2 standard settings for sound: 'movie' or 'music' takes some work to set up settings wise, but it's great to have that customizable option.
from sixers21 from philly, www.circuitcity.com
the sound has to be pretty high though to hear all the words but sounds and music are really loud.
from chase from atlanta, www.circuitcity.com
also, i wouldn't recommend this for music listening.
from Drea from Richm, www.circuitcity.com
i listen to a lot of music.
from www.amazon.com
the unit has two sound modes, "movie" and "music" and a bass enhancer (which i turned off as it made the bass sound boomy and obnoxious for music listening).

Sangean HDT-1 HD Radio Component Tuner System

$194.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
the music came alive...wow what graat sound.the other thing that i do not like is the lcd display that stays lit even when the system is off.
from www.crutchfield.com
i bought the sangean hdt-1 and it did away with the interference i was experiencing on my classical music station and gave me access to hd channel for my all jazz station.
from www.amazon.com
it loses lock to hd-2 feed of 90.1 (npr news) and reverts back to hd-1 (classical music) feed a couple of times per day.
from www.amazon.com
it gives you a description of the station and music titles on many non-hd stations.
from www.amazon.com
the bottom line is that i find hd radio fine for background listening, and i appreciate having classical music available at almost any time.

i feel that you get the expected performance for a sub $300 unit that is very sufficient for home theater use though a bit underwhelming for listening to music at higher volumes.
from www.amazon.com
i love the ipod dock for my music and it charges at the same time.
from www.amazon.com
