Samsung HT-BD8200

The Samsung HT-BD8200 not only offers a likeable and easy to set-up home cinema system, it also offers audio and video of a higher standard than the price lets on.

Home cinema for under $1500

You get what you pay for with HTIB systems, so if you're prepared to spend up to AU$1500 you'll achieve sound quality that will better match the picture.

Reviews

  • Q Acoustics Q-TV2

    The Q Acoustics Q-TV2 is a worthwhile upgrade for any avid television watcher, and it doesn't take up any extra room.

  • Samsung HT-BD1255

    Despite the rather plastic look and feel, this Samsung system offers plenty for the money and its audio and visual performance are both rather good for a HTIB system.

  • Panasonic Viera TX-37LZ800M

    This flagship 2008 Panasonic Viera LCD TV delivers brilliant colours and soulful sounds, but is held back by a less than ideal PC resolution support and a broken anti-judder 24p function.

  • Samsung HT-X715

    The Samsung HT-X715 is very easy to set up and it does make your movies look and sound good. We just didn't care for the music sound quality with flabby sounding bass.

  • Samsung HT-BD2

    The Samsung HT-BD2 delivers the sort of top-notch video quality you'd expect from the world's first HTIB with built-in Blu-ray — but its high price, average audio quality, and lack of extras make it tough to recommend.

  • Samsung HT-TX500T

    The Samsung HT-TX500T delivers sound and image quality as expected from a mid-range home theatre package.

  • Samsung HT-TXQ120T

    The Samsung HT-TXQ120 is a rock solid audio system that rivals component-level kits in sound quality. This, however, is not the case for the video department with its just above-average visuals.

  • Samsung HT-XQ100

    If you just bought yourself a Samsung R7 LCD TV and are on the lookout for a matching sound system, nothing will come close to the beautifully crafted HT-XQ100 home-theatre-in-a-box.

  • Best 'home theatre in a box' systems

    You've finally taken the plunge and invested in a large screen TV, but found out pretty much straight away that the sound is thin and not deserving of the term "home theatre". So where to next?
