Home Theater Systems

The home theater is a complete audio system, an example of consumer electronics at their best. Whether you choose a small, complete home theater system or start with a home theater receiver and add your own mix of components, Overstock.com has the gear that'll let you rock on, hang with a coal miner's daughter or get hooked on the classics.

Most people still prefer buying a home stereo system piece by piece so their home theater is customized to their personal style, but, for those on a tight budget (in dollars or square feet); home theater in a box is a great way to start. Home theater in a box (or HTIB) is a package that always includes a receiver and stereo speakers. Usually, receivers have an integrated AM-FM radio and, occasionally a CD changer or DVD player. Most home theater speakers are 5.1-channel, meaning a subwoofer, a center channel speaker and four surround sound speakers. The advantages are obvious; the components are designed for each other; the styles match and the cost is lower.

Searching for a new home theater system? Why spend the time and gas searching among store sales, hoping to get a great bargain, when you have a perfectly good sale going on every day right on your home computer? At Overstock.com, a home theater in a box is always on sale at a great price and our shipping fee is always a whole lot less than sales tax!

You may have noticed we haven't mentioned televisions. They're an integral part of really good home theater systems, but the wide screen HDTV you want just isn't in the budget, or is it? Consider a home theater projector. A projector and a projector screen can be much more economical than a big screen and, they can be much, much bigger! Just a little food for thought from Overstock.com, where a feast of home entertainment values is our daily buffet.
