Compact, affordable home theater ? the TH-A30 from JVC delivers convincing surround sound performance in a design so small and efficient, it disappears into your room! For under $ 400, you get a console unit with a single-disc DVD/CD player and built-in Dolby Digital? and DTS? decoding, plus five voice-matched satellite speakers and a subwoofer. It's the ideal system for a dorm room or den, filling small- to mid-sized rooms with home theater excitement. And since all the cables are included (as well as an easy setup guide), you can hook up this system with ease.
Featuring a 6-channel amplifier, the console unit delivers 25 watts x 5 to the satellites and a whopping 110 watts to the sub. The 7-7/8" subwoofer driver really turns out impressive bass, while the full-range satellite speakers create a seamless surround sound experience. The satellites boast an ultra-compact design, so you can place them discreetly on a shelf or bookcase (and they're wall-mountable for even more placement options). The TH-A30 also delivers a terrific picture ? progressive-scan video output lets you enjoy smoother, more filmlike images with compatible HDTV-ready televisions. And even if you're not ready for high-definition TV, you'll still enjoy a sharp, vivid DVD picture.
In addition to DVDs, the single-disc player can also handle CDs, audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and MP3 CDs. You can also tune in your favorite radio stations. And a stereo audio input allows you to hook up an external component and run it through the TH-A30. The multibrand remote puts you in control of the system, and it can operate most major brands of televisions.
