    I have just bought my Panasonic SC-HT870 system yesterday night and in about 1:30hours I installed it.

I bought this unit ...

    Exellent value and superb sound. We thought that as the SC-HT870 is Panasonic's top the range home cinema system it would include karoke program, why not, as in other countries it is included.
