Best Home Theater Systems of 2024When we saw this article over at CNET we remembered the days of Home Theater in a Box setup. Do those even exist anymore? Anyway, we checked out this article wondering what is considered the Best Home Theater System. We came away thinking we may have taken steps backwards for the sake of simplicity. Full article here…
- Best Budget Soundbar - Roku Streambar Street Price ~$125
- Best Budget Surround Sound Speaker Package Klipsch Reference Theater Pack 5.1 System Street Price ~ $400
- Best Bookshelf Speakers Elac Debut 2.0 B6.2 Street Price ~$400
- Best Home Theater Soundbar System Vizio Elevate Street Price ~$700
- Best 8K receiver Onkyo TX-NR6100 Street Price ~$475
If you are looking for a capable but value 5.1 system we have designed a “Home Theater in a Box System” for you! Our system will cost you more. However, it will sound much better! And for the record, we receive nothing from the manufacturers.
For speakers - The RSL CG3M 5.1 home theater system. This is a 5.1 system that includes four bookshelf, one center, and one subwoofer. The cost is $850.
For the receiver - Denon AVR-X1800H. It's a 7.2 or 5.2.2 receiver (room for growth) that supports all the things we care about! It goes for $560.
Total cost $1410. Yes, that’s $535 more than the Onkyo and Klipsch system from the CNET article but it's much better and can grow with you.
