1-Day Deal: Panasonic SC-BT235 Blu-ray Home Theater System: $269.99 Shipped

By Rachel Cericola

Back in the day, when you wanted good audio and video, you had to build the system from scratch. Packaged systems just didn't perform as well. Oh, how times have changed.

Not only can you get an instant home theater that sounds and looks good, but most are pretty affordable. Well, some more than others, especially when Amazon intervenes. Today, the retailer has listed its Gold Box Deal as the Panasonic SC-BT235 Blu-ray Home Theater Sound System. This is an instant home theater package (with high-def!); all you need to do is add a TV. You also have to buy it, but that shouldn't be a problem since Amazon has it listed for $269.99. Find out more on Amazon's Gold Box page:

This 1000-watt system features two 125-watt front speakers, a 250-watt center channel, and two compact 125-watt surrounds. Making things slightly more interesting (and bass-y) is the 250-watt matching subwoofer.

The setup also includes a Blu-ray player, for all of your high-def movie needs, as well as little perks like an integrated iPod dock and Panasonic's own VIERA Cast. If you haven't amassed much of a Blu-ray collection get, this on-screen service can provide plenty of entertainment, via on-demand access to Netflix, YouTube, Pandora, and much more.

Other features include Audio Channel Return, Cinema Surround, and 7.1-channel Virtual Sound. The setup is a nice choice for your first home theater setup -- or your second or third. Because the system is so easy and so compact, it's perfect for a basement, a playroom, or any other room that could use a little AV boost. Find out more on Amazon's product page:

We're so used to telling you that you need to buy directly from Amazon, but that's not the case today. Amazon is offering this deal through Woot.com. The good news is that you will still get the discount as well as free shipping. Just make sure you buy from Woot -- and fast! Because this is the Gold Box Deal of the Day, this offer is only good through today (Thursday, August 25, 2011) or whenever the retailer runs out of stock.
