Panasonic SC-BT100 Wireless surround sound system
Are you looking for the convenience of a wireless surround sound system, but want to stay up to date with the latest technology? The Panasonic SC-BT100 wireless home theater system might be worth checking out. It is one of the first home theater in a box systems to come bundled with a Blu-ray player instead of a regular DVD player, and couples this 5.1 channel sound with wireless surround sound speakers. At a price of around $1000RRP this system looks to pack in a lot of features for a very reasonable price.
Features:
- Blu-ray disc player with 5-disc changer
- 5.1 channel surround sound
- Wireless surround sound speakers using 2.4GHz transmission
- iPod dock
- SD card slot for playing back digital media
Advantages:
The Panasonic SC-BT100 system is especially well regarded by reviewers for its excellent video quality, as you would expect from a manufacturer who (in my opinion) makes some of the best HDTVs. The upscaling to 1080p is handled especially well by the system. Also handy is the iPod dock and SD card, which give the system more functionality than a basic wireless home theater system. The system will also easily upgrade to 7.1 surround sound with the purchase of another wireless transmitter and pair of wireless surround sound speakers.
Disadvantages:
Despite excellent video and a great feature list, some reviewers think that the system is let down by its sound. It depends who you ask: at testfreaks.com and whathifi.com the reviewers claim that the sound is too harsh. At hometheatermag.com they think that the system has a “not unpleasantly warm coloration,” and remains easy to listen to even at high volumes. If they can’t all agree then in my opinion it can’t be that bad, right?
Conclusion:
If you want for a high-end wireless surround sound system that comes complete with Blu-ray player and a list of other great features, then look no further. The video quality is reportedly amazing. While the reviewers may disagree about the overall sound quality, at a price of $1000 RRP the system is great value of money. Get it at amazon for $548.87 and the value is even better!
