Product description from 6ave.com:

This audio and video system includes DVD player, five satellite speakers and AM/FM tuner This Home theater system boasts 5.1-channel audio for surround sound systems.

5.1-channel audio for surround sound systems
Surround sound encompasses a range of techniques for enriching the sound reproduction quality of an audio source with audio channels reproduced via additional, discrete speakers. 5.1 surround sound may also be referred to as 3-2 stereo. This defines the configuration that has been standardized for numerous surround sound applications. The Coby DVD-937 5.1-Channel DVD AM/FM Tuner Home Theater System comes with five full-range satellite speakers (2.25-inch cone type).

Dolby Digit
al decoder
The time delays in your Dolby Digital decoder !
are pres
et to provide good results in most home theater installations. If you wish to fine-tune the adjustments, consult the decoder’s instruction manual. A decoder is a device which does the reverse of an encoder, undoing the encoding so that the original information can be retrieved. The same method used to encode is usually just reversed in order to decode.

DVD player
A DVD player is a device that plays discs produced under both the DVD Video and DVD Audio technical standards, two different and incompatible standards.

Five satellite speakers
Satellite speakers are the speakers that carry the mid-bass on up in a three piece system that consist of a pair of “small” speakers (the satellites) and the bass only speaker called the sub-woofer.

AM/FM Tuner
A tuner is an adjustable device which passes one radio frequency, or band of frequencies, and excludes others, by using electrical resonance. A tuner performs the process of selecting the desired signal
but its output is not directly usable and must be sent to another device. Typically tuners are sold with built-in audio amplifiers, loudspeakers, and/or a video display to form a radio receiver or television set. Tuners can be either stereo or mono, and are available for TV, FM, AM, and other types of radio signals.

6ave.com has the Yamaha YSP1100 Multichannel Home Theater Speaker for $548.00 with free shipping.

Product description from 6ave.com:

For all the great sound you can handle, add this multichannel home theater speaker to your collection of home entertainment equipment. By taking the place of several separate speakers, this model saves space and reduces the amount of wiring required for installation
. Despite its compact size, this highly capable speaker includes 42 digital amplifiers and 42 sound drivers, so sound from DVD movies, television programs and music albums sounds strong and clear. Once you've completed the setup, choose from among 5 sound modes to create a listening environment that suits your style. When you're looking for both an easy sound upgrade and the control you crave, this no-nonsense speaker delivers.

Single-speaker convenience
Although it takes the place of 3 separate speakers, this unit doesn't sacrifice performance for size. Thanks to Dolby II Pro Logic, you'll still be able to hear rich immersive audio in everything from romantic comedies to televised concerts. In addition, you'll avoid a long, drawn-out installation process, so you can start savoring your favorite sounds right away. Whether you're new to audio equipment or you just want to avoid a setup headache, this speaker is the right choice.

Sound
in the right spot
Having great sound is a joy in itself; !
it's
even better when you can control where in the room the sound goes. This speaker offers 5 selectable sound modes to focus sound in one area and avoid another. For example, you can aim the sound away from bedrooms to avoid disturbing sleeping family members or direct it toward listeners who are hard of hearing. With just a few clicks on the remote control, you'll be able to create a sound setup that's just right.

Interference-free
Some speakers can cause interference with nearby screens and monitors, causing pictures to shake and warp. That's not a problem when you situate this speaker near your television or computer. Magnetic shielding prevents the speaker's internal magnetic fields from affecting the way images display on your TV screen or computer monitor. Place the speaker next to or on top of your video display without worrying about image distortion or shaking.

So many sound choices
This speaker offers 7 cinema DSP programs to tailor
the sound according to the type of media you're enjoying. For example, use the sports setting for the not-to-be-missed football championship or the sci-fi setting to emphasize exciting movie sound effects. In addition, this speaker is compatible with many Dolby Digital and DTS digital decoding formats, so programs and discs recorded in this format come through with outstanding depth and richness. Thanks to the speaker's sound settings, you can experience thrilling, realistic sound with just the push of a button.

Sophisticated sound
Who says speakers can't look as great as they sound? This speaker's silver color is neutral enough to match surrounding walls and furniture, yet it's attractive enough to get just the right amount of attention. The narrow design ensures it will take up a small amount of space when mounted on the wall, so it won't steal the spotlight from your flat-panel television. This speaker's contemporary looks and high pe
rformance make a winning combination for your home entertain!
