LG just announced the launch of their latest range of LCD, Plasma TVs and Home Theatre Systems, bringing consumers stlish designs, smart technology, and great functionality.
Attending LG’s event, we got to see up close the really cool wine glass shaped speakers of the home theater system HT964PZ. This show stealer is retailing at S$799 and for such a cool looking set of speakers, the price is very reasonable.

For those who wants to splurg on a higher quality sound system that looks equally stylish, LG also launched the HB954PB speakers that comes with Front sub woofer, lossless decode for DTS HD Ma & Dolby True HD, iPod and iPhone playback & recharge, direct USB connection and many other incredible features. This set is retailing at S$2999.
The other home system launched, with similar specifications, was the HB954SP, instead of looking like the two above sound systems, this set comes in an oval egg shaped speakers and front sub woofer, retailing at S$1999.

I can’t wait to try one of these sound systems and TV sets! My mother would be elated because she’s always wanted a good sound system at home. Perhaps she would be sold by LG’s home theater systems 
home theaters are very common these days with price ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars”,*
home theater systems made by Bose are the best sounding stuffs that i ever tried.’;
home theathers with 5.1 system sounds really great specially if you add those 12 inch subwoofers ~~’
i have both DTS and Dolby Surround home theather system at home and the sound is superb ”.
