Panasonic SC-BT330

 

It was a hard task for us to rank all the home theater in box systems on our side-by-side comparison chart because there are so many good options. However, we have no problem saying that the Panasonic SC-BT300 is certainly in the top tier in a field of...

An integrated Blu-ray player plus internet streaming allows you to view content from a variety of sources

There's no digital tuner, so you can't capture over-the-air broadcast signals

On the cusp of greatness, only a few missing features keep this system from being the best.

Piece of Crap - Worked for about a Year

 

I recieved the theater system as a gift in 2010, Panasonic advertised that it had added a few apps in late 2011, so installed the November 2011 firmware update and the player has stopped playing all blu-rays. I have sent an email to see if we can...

Is perfect, easy to install, excellent and power sound. All the speaker cables are quite long. All modes of input sound are easy to use. The control iPhone is good. Excellent price!!

Great player with 2 things to improve.

 

Almost 2 years since I purchased it and its working perfectly at the present date. Great sound and video quality. There are 2 reasons why I didnt give it 5 stars: - it doesnt have an usb port to read mp3, pictures and videos (I dont like apple products...

Great sound

 

This is a great product ... I only wished the back speakers were also wireless. But it was easy to hide the thin cord behind pictures. I got this for the sound quality and it's great. Yes, I would buy this system again.

Stopped working after less than 1 year

 

I bought this in early 2011. At first, it played everything fine. I wasn't happy with the way it handled iPods but otherwise it seemed to work. (For the iPod, you have to turn on the TV and use the menu associated with the unit to specify a play list....

Great sound-EZ to install!

 

Bought it for my son, who's less technically inclined than even me! He had no trouble hooking everything up and getting quality room-filling osund-at a great price

Sound is pretty decent. Speech could still be better. The Netflix menu is rather slow and I can never remove things from the instant queue even though there is a selection for it. The unit sometimes turns itself off. Also it randomly has a loud pop...

Owned this for 6 months +

 

Most reviews jump the gun, and then people tend not to update with their findings. For this reason, I decided to wait on posting my views on this unit. I knew it was cheap, and knew things could go very sour, in little time. First - I gave it 5 stars,...

Product Specifications

Viera Cast's assorted online content just keeps getting better - in addition to the popular contents such as YouTube and Picasa Web Albums, it now offers Pandora Internet radio, exciting sports from FOX sports, and tweeting web communications with twitter. No PC required. By using a combination of real speakers and virtual speakers, a more natural and smoother sound can be enjoyed. You'll notice the difference, especially in an action scene - you'll feel like you're sitting in the center of a true cinema theater. With the bamboo cone speakers, the sound becomes much more responsive. Vocals are more pure and cleaner, and the dialog is crisper and easier to understand than ever before. The Kelton type subwoofer reproduces highly robust, reverberating bass sounds. The SC-BT330 is compatible with a feature of ARC (Audio Return Channel). ARC allows receiving audio signals from the TV, on top of the preexisting HDMI function of sending audio/video signals to the TV with just one cable. This feature will simplify the connection by eliminating an audio cable connection between the TV audio output and the main unit's audio input.
