LHB977 LG Network Blu-ray Disc™ Home Theater System

LG LHB977 Network blu-ray home theater systemModel LHB977 Home Theater System is LG’s highest end or should I say BEST Home Theater System. It offers Full HD 1080p resolution and 1080p up-scaling. It produces 5.1 surround sound and can play Blu-ray Disc. But the best feature is the ability to stream movies, TV shows, videos and music directly to your TV with Netflix and Pandora with it’s handy internet port. (LG should have add itunes support but that will make the Apple TV obsolete). I bet future revision of this product will have Wi-Fi support. Check out it’s features and specs after the cut.
