Denon DHT-FS3 2 Speaker Sound System: Shiny, Black, With Less Wires

Here's our second post from our Unplggd candidate, Anthony. Tell us how you think he's doing...

unplggd032508-denon01.jpgOne speaker. One subwoofer. With its low profile design, compact size which allows for tucking away behind couches, shelf nooks, and easy set-up, the Denon DHT-FS3 joins the every growing field of single speaker + sub home theater solutions with shiny success...

 
 

unplggd032508-denon02.jpgThe DHT-FS3 is a whole lot smaller than any one-bar surround system we’ve seen here at Unplggd, so there are a wider range of options for placement around you’re A/V setup. The build quality has received great marks by sites such as CNET, and the beautiful high-gloss black finish is a definite plus. Having two optical, one coxial, and two phono inputs gives you room for your Wii, PS3, DVD player, and a few more for the taking. The sound? Reviews have been very positive (including a mention in a recent Home Theater magazine sound bar shootout feature), and we're placing an order for one for our own home setup because we're sick of running wires to the rear surround speakers. Fuss-free surround sound is coming – sooner and better than anyone had originally anticipated.

I went with a cheaper Yamaha YSP 800 sound projector for the same reasons: decent surround sound without visible speaker wires all over the room. I really like the look of this system as well, esp the cool subwoofer. Let us know how it works out for you.

Anthony - Nice find. The piano black finish is great. Please do let us know how it works out for you. I am always curious to get opinions after people after jumped in early on the buy cycle what their take is after a year or so. Most reviews are "I got mine last week and it is awesome!"

I think it would be good to write the price for the item in the posting.
