LG LHB977

$700.00 Released May, 2009

The Pros:Good interface with the iPod, gives great access to the media inside. Attractive drivers with nice angles, look very sophisticated. Setup is very easy, everything connects as you'd expect, no instructions needed.

The Cons:Doesn't have the clarity, volume or definition that audiophiles will crave.

The LG LHB977 is the mid-grade model of LG's latest LHB home theater system line which was announced at the 2009 CES event in Las Vegas. The series includes three new home entertainment receivers; the LG LHB954, LG LHB977, LG LHB979.
