i havent checked the stores lately. mine is the entry level Samsung HTZ310 which i got about 5-6 years ago. bundled with my samsung lcd tv, dagdag lang ng 5k. dvd player na din sya with optical in to receive audio from my ASUS OPlay Mini which i bought 2 years ago. it was a good combination, imo. the decoding quality of the ASUS and the 5.1 utilization in Samsung. kahit downloaded movies lang sa net, gumaganda ang tunog pati separation ng front and back speakers.
yun nga lang, may problema nitong model na to ng samsung eh after the warranty expired, lumabas na yung "Protect Mode" error. my online research told me that something inside got burned and the unit automatically turns itself off. ang solution, to bring it to a Samsung service center, have the burned chip replaced and pay up to 5k in chip purchase and service. thats really disappointing. and theres a wait time of up to 5 months depende daw sa shipment ng replacement chips. bummer.
kaya ayun, naka tengga na lang sya sa kahon.
cant give you an exact figure chong. you can try visiting appliance stores for a 5.1 channel dvd player with optical receiver, yun lang marerecommend ko. may mga brands ngayon na mura na maganda pa mag perform tulad nyang DeVant. yun nga lang, wala daw optical out eh.
