We like:
Good picture quality; impressive sound; low price tag
We don't like:
Not amazingly loud; only upscales to 1080i format
CNET UK judgement:
It's not the loudest system around, but we think most people will love the Samsung HT-X30's warm sound and great picture quality. Extra features such as the USB port, DivX playback and DVD-Audio support only add to its charm

Panasonic DMR-BS750
A terrific machine, and very affordable if you're called Bill Gates or you've just had a lottery win -- but rather pricey for everyone else
Pioneer LX01BD
Top-notch picture and sound quality make this a system to lust after. The only real catch is the price
