35E Black Home Theater
As low as  
A TV by itself is a lonely thing - and not much use as well. What you really need is the full video experience, with booming speakers surrounding you in immersive sound as realistic or even better than what you'll find in theaters.

You don't want to have to spend your time mixing and matching components, though. So what to do? Get a complete all-in-one home theater system that offers such a realistic experience, you'll feel like you should be selling popcorn in your living room.

But with so much to choose from, what's the best home theater to get? If you're looking for the ultimate in sound, then get the BOSE Lifestyle 35E Black Home Theater as low as . It gives you the best of both worlds: big sound and small size. As 5.1 system, it comes with five speakers and one subwoofer. The speakers themselves are 4.5-inch cubes, but deliver spectacular sound, and the media center/integrated DVD player and AM/FM tuner is only slightly larger than a notebook computer. The sound, as you would expect from BOSE, is absolutely top-of-the-line; it's hard to believe it comes from speakers this small and easy to hide away.

If you're looking for a more affordable system, you can't do better than the Onkyo HT-S760 Home Theater for as low as . This remarkably priced system is a 6.1 unit, so it comes with six speakers and a subwoofer, and a receiver that delivers 100 watts per channel. This one is an editor's favorite, with many raving about the sound, particularly at this price. The bargain is no doubt the reason that this is the best-selling home theater system on all of PriceGrabber. It doesn't come with a DVD player, so you'll have to buy that separately.
