Samsung HT-BD2E home theatre system
The Samsung HT-BD2E is an 800 Watt home theatre system with a built-in Blu-ray disc player, good sound quality and plenty of power.
Rich and balanced sound, involving surround effects, powerful
No wireless rear speakers, no BD-Live, no USB connectivity
This basic home theatre package packs a 5.1 channel amplifier into a Blu-ray player. Simply plug in a flat screen television and you’re ready to go.

Samsung HT-BD2 Blu-ray Home Cinema System
Cut out the fuss and get yourself a decent 7.1-channel Blu-ray system for an equally decent price.

Samsung HT-BD2 review
Blu-ray enters a brave new world
Good Blu-ray and upscaled DVD video performance ; Loud, bombastic audio
Slooooow load-up times ; Not compatible with all BD-J or BD Live ; No video inputs
A big, booming home cinema system, which you'll either love or hate

Samsung HT-BD2 review
This good value system is the first cinema-in-a-box with Blu-ray
Excellent spec for the money, including fine Blu-ray pictures and sounds, plus 7.1 speakers ; very stylish looks
Treble is a bit harsh, whilst bass isn't quite deep enough ; could do with a little more sonic solidity
The first Blu-ray cinema in a box sets a good standard for others to follow

Samsung HT-BD2
The Samsung HT-BD2 delivers the sort of top-notch video quality you'd expect from the world's first HTIB with built-in Blu-ray — but its high price, average audio quality, and lack of extras make it tough to recommend.
7.1-channel Blu-ray home cinema ; Built-in Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding ; Elegant styling, with four tallboy speakers ; Full-size subwoofer ; Upscales DVDs to 1080p
Expensive ; Only Blu-ray Profile 1.0 compliant ; Few jacks for connecting external sources ; Slow disc loading ; No auto speaker calibration
Music was a step down from movie sound; we felt the HT-BD2 blurred Radiohead's atmospheric sound mixes on its In Rainbows CD. 'Walk of Life' from Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms CD felt dynamically flat. Like most HTIB systems, the HT-BD2 was more...
