Home Cinema Recommendation

[tep1981]

My current system Sony BDV-E870 has recently started playing up, takes on average 2-3 minutes once switched on to being able to watch a blu-ray, also the function input sometimes does not switch to correct input (just defaults to home)

Being 6 years old I feel it's time to upgrade

I'm looking for a 5.1 complete home system in the region of up to £450 with a front loading tray, been looking at these models which seem to do what I'm looking for

Sony bdv-e4100
Panasonic SC-BTT465
LG-LHB745 (seems the best option)

Any other recommendations?

You could consider an entry level separates system at that budget.

Richer sounds do very good deals on amp and speaker packages

You could then buy a blu ray player which now available for £50

It requires you having an extra box but the advantage would be likely superior performance, the ability to replace a individual item if it breaks in future rather than swap the whole system and and easy ability to add in anything extra in the future as the amp will have plenty of HDMI inputs to process HD audio and video.
