A "BoomBox" solution, albeit it with 7.1 surround, is still a boombox-solution, -- big on convenience perhaps, but lacking just about everywhere else.

And I'm very handsome too! (As far as Klingons go, you know). :-P

SO, illuvendo, what are your personal thoughts on these .17c rinky-dink, mass-market plastic squawk-box speaker "systems" designed to "transport you into the next dimension", designed for folks who live in their parent's basement instead of a sound-proof 240 sq. ft. home theater room, where you can feel the earth open up when the 16" subwoofer kicks in??

(It's ok, you can tell me; ain't no one looking). :)

@ A_Klingon, my good friend and ally (Handsome too)

Me thinks your solution is far better than the Samsung HTIB (priced better too).

BTW your price is good, but shp is kinda high.
