LG Electronics has just introduced in South Korea its new home theater all-in-one, the HT972TR, which comes loaded with a integrated CD/DVD player and has a total power of 1000W, distributed in 5 speakers with 155W and a subwoofer with 255 W. The vertical design is original and stands out from every other home theater system out there, but the main appeal of the HT972TR is the touchscreen buttons on the front, that are inspired and look just like the navigation buttons on the LG Chocolate cellphone.

The LG HT972TR can handle upscaling of videos to the Full HD 1080p resolution, and comes with both HDMI and USB Plus (Music, Photo & Movie Support) ports. The system can play MP3 and WMA audio files, JPEG images and DivX videos, from DVD±RW, DVD±R, DVD (PAL/NTSC), CD-R and CD-RW.

The system uses the VSM technology (Virtual Sound Matrix/three-dimensional sound) that extends the original 5.1 to emulate a 10.1 channel configuration, enhancing the experience of watching a movie or listening to your favourite album.

More information is available at the official product page at LG Electronics, but only for those of you that can read in Korean.
