Samsung Plasma HDTV FPT5884

Dec 1, 2008 10:55AM PST

I'm shopping for a Home Theater System; probably "in a box", preferably plug and play or wireless.

My current receiver isn't working anymore and the thought of wired speakers is more than daunting...

Any suggestions for a compatible Home Theater system?

A few options...

thesilvercybnet,

Samsung has a full lineup of Home Theater systems here:

There is no "wireless" home theater system for all of the speakers, but there is an option to avoid the wire that runs to the rear speakers. We use a wireless box in some models that will transmit the rear speakers wirelessly. (Though, you still need to plug in a transmitter for the rear speakers and run speaker wire). It's a step in the right direction for some applications.

If this sounds like something that interests you, look through a couple of models, and I'll be happy to answer your questions regarding units that may interest you.

for your post. Believe it or not I spent some number of hours searching for compatible Home Theater Systems for my HDTV; prior to my initial post here.

While I appreciate your response and link to Samsung Home Theaters, I was hoping to get a recommendation(s); as I have already done a pretty extensive search for Home Theater Systems, wireless/plug and play.

Again, thank you HD Tech for your response.
