Home-Theater-In-a-Box (HTIB) Explained

Serious home theater enthusiasts often created their systems from individual components, matching an A/V receiver with a pair of floorstanding speakers, individual satellite speakers, and a carefully chosen subwoofer. The problem is, in the 5.1 range – which is generally considered to be the minimum number of speakers needed for surround sound – there's very little point in doing this. Yes, you will get better sound, but it's often not worth the hassle – not when there are so many excellent packages out there. Hence the rise of something known as Home-Theater-In-A-Box (HTIB): a complete surround sound package, including receiver, that you can buy in one transaction, and which will set you up.

We already mentioned that these have an unfairly maligned reputation, but we think that for many people, they are an ideal solution – and a perfect gateway drug into the joys of surround sound. While not every system on our list is technically an HITB system, in that you will need to buy an additional receiver, we still have a few. Arguably the best on the list in 5.1 Ch Packages are Yamaha YHT-3072 And Pioneer HTP076 Bluetooth Wireless Bundles, Which offers everything you need to get set up in one convenient package. You will however pay just under Rs 50000for it.
