Onkyo 2.1 HTX-22D sound system taps DTS' Surround Sensation
Not content with dropping a few new HTIB systems and an all new receiver, Onkyo is apparently delivering a 2.1-channel home audio system, too. The HTX-22D, while not adequate for surround sound purists, may be just the thing for apartment dwellers and movie lovers on a budget. It's said to be the first system to feature DTS' CES-announced Surround Sensation feature, and it also boasts a built-in display on the powered subwoofer. You'll also find a trio of HDMI ports (two in, one out) and support for a smattering of audio codecs. Head on down to the read link for the full list of specs, and keep an eye for these to land across the pond in May for £300 ($590).

I do like how the Onkyo was designed, but I am not a big fan of HTIBs.

Do you read carefully ? If you do ,you will see the difference ,This Onkyo's 2.1 system includes next generations sound codecs such as Dolby TrueHD and dtsHD master audio plus HDMI inputs and outputs .So last time I checked Klipsch one doesn't include those things.

ummm, why would someone pick this over their other new HTIBs? I dont get it... The Surround Sensation feature?? bah...
The new HT-S5100, S4100, and S3100 are $579, $479, and $379 respectively.
Don't be silly...
