Review Summary

The LG HT902TB is an awesome Home Theatre which includes a DVD and Tuner. Its design is attractive and easy to set up, though it is quite bulky. The four 1.2m speakers are cute with a glossy finish and semi-circular rear end. The centre speaker works perfectly with any TVs. The DVD’s rear panel features an HDMI output, a USB port and a digital audio input. The HDMI includes HD upscaling of DVDs to 720p or 1080i, but not 1080p. The USB allows direct playback from USB storage devices of music, JPEG and DivX files, and the digital audio input allows sources with digital audio outputs, like Sky+ and Sky HD receivers. The soundstage is exceptionally clean and detailed. The satellite speakers pick out any particular sound however faint it might be in the background. With the equality of all four main satellite speakers the sound is surprisingly amazing. On the other hand its pictures aren’t quite as satisfactory. It’s impossible not to notice the dotting noise in the LG’s pictures. And this doesn’t disappear if you upscale to 720p or 1080i, but upscaled images give some extra sharpness. Besides the slight noise, most other things about the HT902TB’s pictures are acceptable, especially considering its price. However the LG HT902TB lacks Long Filenames support for MP3 and Random Play ability. LG came out with upscaling surround sound solutions with its HT902TB. This 5.1 arrangement also improves standard definition picture quality up to 1080i with the supplied DVD/amplifier unit and offers a total of 1000W of power. The speaker setups give the option to either wall-mount the speakers or arrange them on the floor by mounting them in the supplied bases. Nevertheless the LG HT902TB with its surprisingly good sound and pleasant design is an attractive offer considering its price range, is not to be missed.
