LG is moving up the price ladder to offer premium home theater speaker system models such as this stylish HB994PK model. It's a 4.1 channel speaker system , supports Blu-ray playback, fully wireless speaker system for all units, including speakers and subwoofer and built-in WiFi for wireless networking.

Take a closer look at what tops both the front speakers - a VFD display on the left unit, while the right side gets a vacuum loaded Blu-ray disc loader. Stylish? Tell us your thoughts.

The LHB975 shown here is a WiFi network Blu-ray home theatre system. A tri-channel wireless system talks to the various sub-components of the system such as the speakers, AV receiver and subwoofer. The receiver is also endowed with WiFi connection and supports NetCast Entertainment Access for a wide variety of online content for viewing. So if your TV doesn't support NetCast, just upgrade your home theatre system.

This BD590 is a WiFI network Blu-ray player. It too boasts of NetCast functionality, and even has a 250GB hard drive to store media content and easily share it among other DLNA certified equipment.

LG was also showing off its reference speaker system, but unfortunately, it's not going retail.

The LG CF3D projector is the world's first single-body 3D projector. It uses a single lens but is powered by dual engines (LCoS) and dual lamps within. Specs include, 2500 Ansi lumens brightness, Full HD resolution, TruMototion 120Hz, triple HDMI connections and a LAN point. We even had a privilege to test drive one of these at the LG show floor. While it's not quite home equipment yet, LG promised there will eventually be a variant for the home.

Here's a cutaway illustration of the 3D projector's inner workings.
