Complete Home Theater System Suggestions.

[Fattie]

Hey guys, my mother asked me to research complete home theater systems for her. And I'm having trouble trying to find ones that play [S]VCD so I decided to post here for some help. If anyone has any information on them please reply. Oh, and she's also looking to spend <$300.

Thanks,

I don't think you will find very many "complete home theater systems" for under $300. If you meant DVD player, than most players these days are including official SVCD (or at least VCD) support. Its not like before when the first safe bet that came to mind was Apex.

your question is way to vague. what do you mean complete home theater system? complete to me means dvd player, tv, surround sound sound and thats a bare bones! a good dvd player is the sony dvp- ns715 p and that will play it all! you can find that at bestbuy.com and they also sell that dvd player in a set with surround receiver and speakers but 300 bux? what kinda complete you lookin for for that money?

I bought a Sony STR-K740P system on sale at BestBuy for $279 (I think the normal price was around $500). This is not a top of the line system however it really made a difference in how I hear my music and movies from now on. It comes with a powered sub and five other speakers. I run my TV, DVD player, VCR, and computer sound through this system.
