A Philips HTS3371D Home Theater Review

By Dave Lashier


Looking for a geat home theater system? Well, look no further! This surround sound systems delivers great sound and great value. The Philips HTS3371D Theater will give you the movie experience. It boasts of clear high definition pictures and elegant surround sound. It also comes with a convenient iPod dock to listen to your favorite music in surround sound. It can do data transfer at a rate of 480 Megabytes per second unlike traditional USB links that only do 12 megabytes per second. You will be able to see movies, pictures, and hear music almost instantly. Experience audio and video like never before as the HDMI 1080p gives you sharper images and the advanced class D amplifier provides the clear and powerful sound.

Positive user reviews far outweigh the negative ones. One of the most raved about features is the sound. The quality of sound is far superior to any other sound system on the market today. Many people that once had an issue with hearing soft spoken people in movies or annoyance at volume levels through movies and television loved the sound from this system. It allowed them to keep it on a lower volume and hear everything better, evening out the sound within the listening experience. More positive news from users suggests that the system is very easy to setup even for electronic beginners. There is no searching through one hundred ports to find where to plug a wire or matching electronics. The compatibility and usability of this theatre system is unsurpassed by the competition.

The cons of the system have mostly to do with the extra equipment that will be needed in order to use your new system. An optical audio cable is required to receive the optimal sound from the system and extra speaker wire will be needed as only short wires are provided. While this may be sufficient for the front speakers, the back speakers will need extra wire to make it to the back of the seating area.

Here is one issue that many customers found irritating. But, then again, maybe this will not be an issue for you! When it is setup, you will love the sound but one issue is that when you use the universal remote to switch between sources, the sound resets to factory level. This means each time you switch between movies to music, you will have to readjust the volume. One more complaint is that it is not designed to be used with other universal remotes so if you are with a provider such as Comcast that requires the use of their universal remotes, you may not be able to use this system. Now that is something to consider before making a final purchase! What do you think? Let's look closer.

The Philips HTS3371D Theater system is one of the best on the market today. It will provide amazing sound like you have never heard before and give you better and clearer high quality pictures in movies and TV. Being as the sound is superior, it is perfect for listening to music as well. Be prepared to do what is necessary in order to get the most out of a system that is ready to give you the most. This means you may need a few extra small purchases of cables but is well worth the extra money when you hear sound like you never have before.
