“For the price, sound, features, design and components, I consider this item as a bargain. The sound quality is good for a 1000w receiver (awesome), the wireless system it’s also included in the package. This brings comfort and it looks really good also. The video quality is normal. The design is good; the speakers are tinny and classy. The ipod dock is a good feature also, because is not an aux output, like the others. The dark side of this item is that it doesn’t have a digital input either a video input. It is a good option for those of you that are looking for great quality sound, but something simple. If you are looking for use this system as a receiver for other system like an Xbox 360 or ps3 you have to know that you can use it, but not as a digital device. You have to use it with regular audio cables (RCA). The lack of video input is other thing that you have to know, because you can’t use this device as an expander. In conclusion it works great and I really like this home theater sound system and the best thing of all is the PRICE!!!”

“I bought my system from Buydig.com and saved over $50.00. It took us about 1.5 hours to hook up. The directions are somewhat confusing but we eventually got it done. It sounds great.”

“Great system if you can follow the instructions.  They are a generic sort and may or may not apply to this unit.  My son and I both have backgrounds in electronics and we finally resorted to pushing buttons and experimenting in a sort of trial and error mode.”

“This is a great system for the $200 price tag. I’ve had the system for nearly a month, so can’t speak on reliability, but the sound that comes from this system is exceptional for the price tag. If you’re someone who likes to keep the mess of wires in your home entertainment system hidden, there is an optional wireless add-on pack you can purchase for an additional $100. The added iPod dock is limited in functionality, but overall gets the job done for someone who only requires basic use. If you are shopping for a surround system on a budget, I’d definitely recommend this system. It’s hard to find a surround system with this type of audio clarity for the $200 price tag its the best home theater system.”

Samsung HT-P38 Theater System

Plug in any MP3/WMA flash memory or HDD device and enjoy all the music stored on your digital audio device through 800 watts of power. People who prefer more convenience should consider the HT-P38. The upgraded unit employs wireless Bluetooth technology so installation is easy. Simply plug in the receiver/amplifier tower in the back of the room and place the speakers where they sound best without worrying about running long lengths of speaker wire through the room’s interior from the front of the room to the rear.

“I was looking for a simple, inexpensive, small DVD-home theater package for my bedroom. Since I’m very quality-conscious, it was important for me to purchase a well-made, good sounding, quality piece.
The problem with HITB’s (Home Theatre In A Box) is that although they might appear to give you everything a separate receiver, DVD player, and speaker packages does – they DO NOT, even if the price is similar to what a separate system would cost. For the most part in the $400 and below price bracket, these HITB’s are just glorified shelf systems with a DVD player and more speakers. They can be very cheaply made, lack even the most basic audio/video connectivity, and sound dull and lifeless.
Enter the Samsung HT-P38. Not only can you pick it up for around $225 (I paid $199 after rebate at Circuit City on sale), but the system has features not found on systems costing twice as much. You’ll find a slew of features in this system, but some of the noteworthy ones I have listed below:

NOTEWORTHY FEATURES:
Composite video in jacks (2) for a cable box and VCR
Optical digital audio-in (1) that can be mapped to either video jack, for digital cable or a separate CD player.
Analog audio in jacks for the (2) video’s above

S-video, component video or composite video out for the DVD. If you select to use composite, you’ll have the added bonus of all video flowing through a single connection to your TV. No flipping to video 1/2/3 required! Although some say this connection is inferior to component or S-video, it really makes little difference if connected through a good cable set (Monster Cable). Unless you’re connecting to a HDTV, you’re not really going to see a big difference. And if you are connecting to an HD set, spend a little more for a better audio system that can really match the TV’s picture quality!
Front USB input – a cool gimmick that I tried, but my camera does not support it.
5-disc carousel-style DVD changer that plays every format known to man, other then SACD (Super Audio CD). Again, not a big deal on a $200 system that lacks the dynamic range to appreciate SACD anyway.
Dolby Pro Logic II, great for watching regular TV or movies from a VCR for example. Simulates a 5.1 Dolby-Digital-like sound. It makes a huge difference over the 10+ year old Pro-Logic that some systems still come with.
Passive, powered sub that takes up little space.
Good on-screen display for all functions.

SOUND QUALITY:
Generally very good, if not a bit muddy at times. But the separation between speakers is very good for a system in this price range. Even at loud volumes, this unit sounds good. If you’re planning to use mostly for better sound from your TV, and the occasional movie/background music, you will be delighted.
I’m not using the supplied 24 gauge speaker cables, which I swapped for 16 gauge. 24 gauge is thinner then telephone wire, and is plain unacceptable for any stereo system save a clock radio. But for the price, they have to save somewhere! (FYI They also don’t include batteries for the remote…)

OPERATION:
Easy to use, and during regular use, only a few buttons on the remote are really needed. Comes with the standard fare, which you can read about anywhere. Front display is BRIGHT, but is dimmable at 2 different levels. But the unit does not retain this setting after it’s turned off.
Overall, this is a perfect system for a bedroom. Even a small living room. My bedroom is 17×13, so it’s really not all that small. The Samsung fills it with sound that’s clear, and boasts superb connectivity over its competition – Panasonic, Sony, JVC for example. Hands down, the best for the price. Samsung has really come along way! Just make sure you’ve got the physical depth for it, since the unit is very deep (probably about 20 inches or so).”

“I found this Samsung at Target of all places, and read the features list, and played with the demo-unit. It met all of the criteria I was looking for in a system which was:
1. Over 500 Watts
2. True 5.1 Dolby Sound (Bargain units have a “simulated” surround)
3. Progressive Scan
4. AUX Input (for devices like my iPod, or XBOX)
5. Stylish/Well Made
6. Compact Subwoofer (w/ ability to adjust the subwoofer’s volume)
7. Disc Compatibility (JPEG, MP3, WMA, DVD-R, +R, RW, etc)
8. Wife’s Approval
9. AM/FM Tuner
Those were my main qualifications, and ANY system I was going to by had to have all of those. I looked at Sony’s comparable model, and it didn’t have inputs, or adjustable subwoofer volume, and was also lower wattage. I looked at other brands like Pioneer, JVC, and even Yamaha, and none of them had what the Samsung had.
Samsung has managed to meet, and exceed my requirements for what an affordable home theater should be. This system actually belts out 800 Watts of true 5.1 Surround Sound, gives me 2 AUX Inputs, a 5-Disc Changer, fully-featured remote, great style, and full volume control over every speaker.
They’ve also included a USB port for connecting an MP3 player, I haven’t tried it yet, but I appreciate the functionality. I also love the blue glow when the unit is powered on… but if you don’t, it has a dimmer, and even the ability to turn the glow off altogether!
I never read any reviews of this model, however I had purchased a Samsung DVD player several years ago on a whim, and I was impressed with it’s picture quality, and longevity, it still works perfectly! I trusted that the Samsung brand would come through for me again, and they have!
We bought this because I wanted surround sound for movies, and my wife wanted a way to listen to her CDs and the radio, this solved all of those problems, at a great price and I couldn’t have asked for anything more.”
