which blu-ray home theater entertainment system is better?

[homohawk81]

I am shopping for home theater system with following function: Internet content; blu-ray; 3D player optional; wireless rear speaker and sounds good for movie, tv and music listening too. Any brands and models to recommend? Thanks!

None, you should never buy a, "system" as in an HTiB. If any one component fails the whole thing goes to the landfill. Also, none of these are any good anyway and they are very limited in what you can connect to them.

The best way is to buy an AVR from Onkyo, Denon, etc, a separate Blu-Ray player and separate speakers. Don't buy the speakers from an electronics company like Sony, Pioneer, or Samsung. Buy the speakers from a speaker company... a real speaker company, meaning stay away from Bose.

Many AVR's have internet connection capability as do many Blu-Ray players. I would forget about the wireless rear speakers, there really are not any good options on this. Keep your main speakers and center speaker within the same brand and model line, the rear can be something else. Your subwoofer will also likely be a different brand from your main speakers. Not many companies do everything best so you go to the best option for each component. A complete system will typically be composed of at least three different manufacturers products.
