The concept behind Orion Home Theatre Systems is based behind what is commonly known as a home theatre PC (HTPC) or a Media Centre PC, if you've only recently heard of a media centre pc, then don’t worry you’re not alone.

The first generation of these systems came way back in 2003, they didn't look like anything more than your standard home PC with the added benefit of a remote control. Doesn't really blow you away if you ask me. At the end of the day what is it meant to do? Does it add any value than my existing gray box. Nonetheless, the media centre pc platform was hailed by most as the ultimate future platform for playback of your digital entertainment. It’s been a rocky start but now 6 years later (2009) the potential of Media Centre is now finally being recognised as a rival solution to what is currently on the market.

The success is down to the fact consumers:

• Are widely using the internet in their everyday life;
• They want to be able to watch all their favourite TV channels;
• Watch online TV channels such as BBC iplayer;
• Require a solution where they can archive all their music and movies;
• Want to watch FULL HD Blu-Ray & upscaled DVD’s
• Do not want to learn several different products.

We now dub them as Home Theatre Systems (Orion HTS), as with our systems the resemblance of a PC is the last thing on the list, much like what a mobile phone is today. Why bother with a Orion Home Theatre System, well not only are they stylish, they are easy to use, they fit into your existing A/V setup, but they cost less than buying all the products separately, plus you are only powering one unit.

This is just the start of an amazing product and concept which may sound complicated and daunting is actually very easy to use by any member of the family.

These services are exclusively provided by Orion Home Theatre Systems and customers are always invited to our show room to experience the products first hand.
