@Dennis, I'm in a similar position to you, so do tell if you make any headway with this. I'm settling for the home theatre in a box option after having looked for a an AVR-speaker package without much luck. For the bass you're looking for an active subwoofer performs better.

@Bernard, pricing and speaker options?

@Bernard, can you please give the location where these are sold???

@Washington Yes some AV Receivers do come with speakers, but not all, most of the time you have to go looking for a set of good speakers separately. And they do not play movies sadly.

Dennis, Hotpoint has this LG unit - http://www.lg.com/ae/audio/lg-HT906TA - available at Hotpoint. I just called someone there who confirms this is successor to HT965 that I have and the specs seems to agree.

In the meantime, I'd like to ask the audio giants this - does the AV receivers also come with the speakers? Do they also play movies? Excuse my ignorance on them.

What @Karunyu said. Home Theatre in a Box doesn't just cut it. Go AV Receiver. Problem is getting them locally. Would anyone know?

Best,

@Dennis, I have a friend who absolutely swears by AV Receivers, he says home theatres are for audio babies, and I know for sure that you are not an audio baby! :-)

The sub-woofer does a nice job!

Wash, how's the bass, does it chuna at a very low volume? Most supermarkets confuse bass and volume.

So, 
After more than 6 years of listening to music on my Creative SBS A300s and Logitec/Sennheiser earphones , I think I'm becoming deaf and therefore no longer in a position to appreciate the bass in the Creatives. 

I would like to replace them with a hometheatre that offers some great sound reproduction in the 50 Hz range upwards. 

However, I am surprised that most of what I am seeing here (http://www.jumia.co.ke/home-theatre/)  does not offer bluetooth pairing or even DNLA. 

I thought stuff in this age should even have a mobile app to control the damn thing? Are the Koreans and Japanese running out of steam?
