Home theatre systems are known to produce mind-blowing sound and eat up precious space in your living room at the same time. However, for those who do not feel it necessary for their Home Theatre system to look expensive and elaborate, Philips has a solution to keep it all together. The HTS8100 SoundBat is among those home theatre systems that takeup one portion of your cabinet rather than scattering itself all over your room. It consists of amplifiers and a DVD player to go with it. It also has a subwoofer which incidentally happens to be the only independent unit from the main body. The appearance of the HTS8100 is pretty sleek and it goes well with any player you have. It is the proud winner of the Innovations Award Winner owing to the various technologies (array processing, precise driver positioning and psycho-acoustics) that it supports.

The Philips HTS8100 SoundBar costs $1000 and will be made available from the second quarter of this year.
