Panasonic SC-BT303
$600.00
The Pros:Bass provides pounding sound effects for movies. Surround effect creates a good cinema experience. Audio is full and rich, nice presence overall.
The Cons:Blu-ray player is slow to respond, takes a long time to start playing a movie. Speaker wires use a Panasonic connector, proprietary and hard to find replacements for.
