LG LHT854 1000-Watt DVD Disc Home Theater In a Box
LG is amazing
i made a review of the JVC THG30, and that it is good system, but i saw some reviews on this and decided to get it and compare the two, here are my opinions which i hope helps on your decisions. i agree with the reviewer above about it is a very good system. on looks, all the speakers and the subwoofer have a piano gloss finish, also including the main unit in the front. the speakers are wall mountable all except the center channel speaker. there one auxiliary input, one optical input, ipod input, usb input and a 3.5 mp3 input. it also has a ipod stand included. it has a hdmi output for 1080p upscaling, progressive scan, component, composite video out. a very good tuner and an universal remote. now, how does it sound? the sound is amazing, nice vocals, clear highs and very good bass. the system is very loud, meaning you don’t need to turn up the volume almost all the way to hear it. LG just amazes me what they make and this is no exception. this unit is now my main system now. what about the JVC, even though it is a good system, i returned it, why, more options on the LG, better sound because of its preset eq, and the bass is more, i like bass and if you do, this is your system. very highly recommended, way to go LG.
Great system for smaller room
I live in a townhouse with an open floor plan, so not a lot of walls.
After much research, I decided on this system. I did not want a “plaster blaster” and unlike most people (guys actually), I am not all that keen on a thumping base.
This system was a breeze to set up. If I can do it, anyone can.
The speaker wires are all color coded and provided you don’t get them all entangled like me, the process is pretty painless. I solved the rear speaker issue by running both wires under the carpet by the patio door and then taking the right rear speaker behind the sofa. I was worried about wires running across the living room floor, but LG provides tons of length to these wires.
I love all the options. I have not used them all as yet, but even my CD’s from my CD player sound terrific on this. Of course movies are the best and the upconvert feature is a plus. The picture quality is just great.
I have only turned the volume up to about 17 and this does it for me (and my neighbor)
Thanks LG for a great product
