Advantages: Great sound and price
Disadvantages: Looks a bit dated and remote fiddly

...and feel, the retro feel Panasonic PT-150 is a sure winner with me. Reason for purchase. After setting up my old fireplace as a "hole in the wall" entertainment system, I experienced one major problem with my Sony surround sount system. It stopped working. Reason being that old soot and debris had fallen down the chimney and filtered through the air vents into the workings and shorted it out! Not to be put off my my idea, i fixed the falling soot ...
...Surround sound that fitted with the room and matched the other items. This would need it to be Silver in colour, the same width dimensions as the Sony ( to fit on the mounts) and thin in height (to fit in the narrow clearance). IT would also need the following conenctions so I could connect it directly to me set up. At least 1 Scart for the Sky X box, Phono plugs for connecting the Xbox 360 sound and built in DVD player to prevent buying a new separate ... Read review

Disadvantages: None

...decided to go for the Panasonic to my delight I rushed home to try it out and I was disapointed with my choice as I had to return it the next day due to it being faulty. I was discouraged from getting the same model, however after speaking to a member of staff in curry's he played all the systems I was interested in and to say the least the Panasonic stood out imensly. The sound quality was by far superior to all the rest in this price bracket even ...

Advantages: BRINGS FILMS TO LIFE
Disadvantages: SUB-WOOFER LOOKS BULKY IN FRONT OF TELEVISION

I have just purchased the Panasonic SCMT1, and would recommend it to anyone who wants to be `in` the film as well as watching it!, it is that good. The first film I put in was Bad Boys 2, and the bullets were whistling around my living room so much, I kept ducking and diving!. I can not tell you if this system is any better than any other make. The one thing I can say is “You will not be disappointed” Just to show you how good it is, I put the ...
...AM/FM radio. I purchased this Panasonic on the Web, after doing a lot of research , both for `quality` and of course price. I always consult `PRICERUNNER.COM`, before I buy anything. They are not always up to spec, but they are never far out. The best deal at the time was from ¬TECHTRONICS`, AN INTERNET BASED ELECTRONICS COMPANY, and I paid an extra £20 to have it adjusted to play `MULTI-REGION DVD’S, which really recommend to anyone, especially ...

Advantages: Amazing sound experience
Disadvantages: A bit confusing when setting up.

We bought a really good 52\" LCD TV, but the sound was average and so decided to buy this system to improve it. Once installed, the difference is amazing! There are 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, 1 centre speaker and a subwoofer. Each speaker is very stylish and unobtrusive, the centre speaker (mainly for vocal) is small and the subwoofer is small and stylish,which means that this system enhances the furniture in your living room, rather than ...
...(&DVD+RW) playback and CD player. The clarity of sound is not compromised, as it has a digital amplifier and it has HDMI upscaling, which means that ordinary (not HD) DVDs play back in high definition quality, plus the Progressive Scan feature means that DVD playbacks are clearer and sharper. There is a USB connection, so that music stored on a computer can be played through this system. All in all, we have not looked back since we bought this wonderful ... Read review

Advantages: Nice looking design
Disadvantages: lack of upgrade options, underpowered sub.

...not be compatible with the Panasonic SC-HT990 so you will need to run the sound through your TV which sort of defeats the object of the surround sound. Granted you can play the sound through the Aux attachments on the rear of the player but that does not do much for quality as it splits your stereo channel to produce surround sound. The sub is also a bit underpowered as it has no seperate amplifier and the speakers are 6 Ohm which basically means ...
...and is used at most for a couple of hours a night. Now the warranty is over and Panasonic will want some exhorborant fee just to have a look at it. While it was working it was decent but I would have expected it to last just a bit longer. ... Read review
