Onkyo HT-S3200

Home-theater-in-a-box systems are often associated with tiny speakers and underpowered AV receivers, but Onkyo (like Yamaha) bucks the trend, packing its home theater systems with big, boxy speakers and component-grade AV receivers. The company announced two new HTIB systems this week, both of which look impressive in terms of value, at least from the specification sheet. Let's take a look at the new systems:

The Onkyo HT-S3200 (pictured) is a 5.1 entry-level HTIB system, currently available currently available with a $380 list price.
