Panasonic SC-BT230 Blu-ray Home Theater in a Box (HTiB)Review

Panasonic's latest entry in the budget Blu-ray home theater in a box category packs a punch for remarkably little coin.

The system's integrated iPod/iPhone dock makes enjoyment of your portable media collection on the big screen (and with big sound) a fairly simple matter, though it will require one additional video cable if you want to watch iPod content on your...

Panasonic SC-BT230

All-in-one systems are home cinema's answer to a takeaway. Sure you could spend ages buying all the ingredients separately and seeing how they taste together, but sometimes all you want to do is buy it, take it home and get stuck right in. If you're...

Networking features, good multimedia support, excellent picture quality, easy to use

Expensive, especially when you add optional extras, sound quality lacks oomph and finesse, no HDMI inputs or built-in Wi-Fi, Viera Cast’s comparatively limited content

If you’re looking for a convenient Blu-ray system with lots of features and cracking pictures, and you’re not overly fussed about getting the best sound quality, then the SC-BT230 is worth a look. But considering what’s in the box, £450 seems...

Panasonic SC-BT230 review

If you've been hankering for a Blu-ray player and surround-sound system, but don't really have the room or money to buy separates, the Panasonic SC-BT230 could well be what you're after. It's an all-in-one Blu-ray player and 5.1 surround-sound system,...

It's packed full of features and supports all of the latest sound and image standards, but the surround-sound is a little flat and underwhelming.

Panasonic SC-BT230

As the price of flat panel TVs fall, consumers are looking to invest additional dollars in the latest home theatre technology in an effort to boost their sound and movie experience. Among the new offerings is the compact Panasonic SC-BT230 which is...

Range of features; Excellent picture quality; Ease of use

The system boots up very quickly but sadly it takes us back to the disc loading dark ages; The overall sound is thinner than we'd hoped

Manual Needs Work!

The manual covers serveral version of HTS and one has to dig to find notes that match unit. Also, it needs at three extra cables to work correctly.

Great Product

I bought this system after considering few of them for my condo. I went to Best Buy, listened to it and decided to buy it. Than I found it on dell web site $100 cheaper. I bought it and when I got it, I was able to set it up in 30 min, even though I'm...

Excellent piece of equipment for the money

I have used this for over a month now. I absolutely love the IPOD dock. For the value of this product the sound is awesome.

Good Home Theater

This is a good low-cost Blue-ray Home Theater system. The whole thing arrives in a surprising small box. The subwoofer puts out plenty of bass for my taste, I even had to turn the sub level down a notch. The blue-ray player is easy to use with a good...
