Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

(March 2011)

The SC-XH150 Home Theater System incorporates a wide variety of Panasonic technologies for high quality sound. The Clear Sound Digital Amplifier and Down Firing Subwoofer reproduce a clear, dynamic sound that wouldn't be expected from the compact size of the main unit and speakers.

Amp
ARC
Clear Sound Digital Amplifier

The Clear Sound Digital Amplifier analyzes the difference between the input and output audio signals, and makes the necessary adjustments to produce an output signal with the same low distortion as the input signal. This results in sound that is highly faithful to the original sound source.

iPod/iPhone Capability

The home theater system is a great way to enjoy the music, video and photo content on your iPod or iPhone. The list of iPod/iPhone content can be displayed on the TV screen, and you can use the remote control from the home theater system or a VIERA TV to select and play it.

ARC (Audio Return Channel)

The home theater system is compatible with the ARC (Audio Return Channel) feature. ARC makes it possible to receive audio signals from the TV, on top of the preexisting HDMI function of sending audio/video signals to the TV with just one cable. This feature simplifies connection by eliminating the audio cable connection between the TV audio output and the main unit's audio input.

* ARC compatible TV is required.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Integration with Panasonic Viera Plasma TV; Price is Right; Extremely Easy Setup, July 20, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Panasonic SC-XH150 5.1 Channel Cinema Surround Home Entertainment System (Electronics)
1.) Works like a charm with my Pansonic Viera Plasma TV. Wish it came with an HDMI cable but I bought one separately for only a few dollars. The ARC (Audio Return Channel) means that only one cable is needed to send video/audio from the DVD player to the TV, or to send audio from the TV to the surround speakers. The HDMI cable also sends data... so when I turn on this system, my TV knows to turn its internal speakers off and the volume control for either remote controls the speaker system. Also, the remotes work well together since they're both Panasonic (i.e. TV power button on the remote for the speaker system).

2.) Price is right... This is significantly cheaper than most stereo receivers or blu ray players, and it comes with all the speakers. I have Netflix on my TV and an HDMI cable running from my computer so no real need for a Blu Ray player.

3.) Setup was really easy. The speaker cables are all color coded, and have ends that easily snap into the receiver one way, so it was really easy to set things up.

4.) And speaking of the speaker cables, they're of pretty decent length. I thought I was going to need to buy additional speaker wire but the included cables were more than adequate for me. Obviously this depends on your setup, but generally speaking they did a good job of providing enough cable length.

5.) I've tried with Netflix, cable TV and Pandora, and I'm very satisfied with how everything sounded for the price. I'm not a huge audiophile but I've worked in TV production my entire life, inevitably acquiring a sense for how good audio should sound, and I've played the cello for 12+ years... and this system satisfies my ears.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent little system, July 2, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Panasonic SC-XH150 5.1 Channel Cinema Surround Home Entertainment System (Electronics)
I bought this dvd home theater for my little corner of the house. We already have an expensive Sony 5 disc home theater for the family room, so I bought this mainly because of the price.

I have it hooked up to a 42in LG Plasma tv, and with the HDMI hookup it upconverts the dvds nicely. They don't look blu-ray quality, but still they look better than normal.

The sound quality of the system is pretty good for a small room. I wouldn't suggest this system for a big basement or living room, but for what I bought it for it sounds great. The volume goes from 1-100 which is a little weird for me, I really only like it to go from 1-50, because I feel bad listening to it at 75.

I have a TOSLINK optical cable running from my tv to the system so I can use it to listen to the tv as well. I does a pretty good job with that. It also has a little tray that pops out for an ipod, but I only use my ipod for jogging, so I doubt that will ever get used.

Hooking up the system was pretty easy. Just hook up the hdmi and toslink cable to the tv and the back of the player and you're good to go. The speakers are all marked which they are and the ends of the wires are color coded to ensure you hook them up right, so they're pretty dummy proof.

The center speaker looks different than it does in the picture here on amazon. It's more of a rectangle than the others. The 2 side and back speakers are little squares just like in the picture. The subwoofer is a tad on the small side, but it serves its purpose well.

Overall I'd recommend this system for anyone looking for an inexpensive home theater for a smaller area.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best Bang For Your Buck, July 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Panasonic SC-XH150 5.1 Channel Cinema Surround Home Entertainment System (Electronics)
This home theater system is simply the best you can get at this price point, feature wise and of course SOUND wise.I was originally in the market for a sony system, but soon realized that for my living room which happens to be a meager 17*8 that would be too much and too price. Bottom line THIS is the system for you if u need ok sound for a small space.
