Hi
There are other brands like Pioneer, Yamaha, Onkyo which have such entry level systems that start from 35k odd onwards.....depending on your budget, you need to audition and decide which one suits your wallet, expected performance and connectivity with features...
Usually the HTiBs (Compact systems) from LG or Philips or Samsung or Sony get outdated after 2 years and getting spare parts or repairs is a big challenge....a lot of our FMs have had bad experiences and hence have opted for separates (AVR+Player+speakers)....
Good Entry level systems start from 35k onwards and can run into lakhs...all depends on what features, power, connectivity and performance you are looking out for and where you will draw the line to spend.......
If budget is a bit tight, look for pre owned stuff in For Sale by owner or Hi Fi Ads...I am sure you will find something......
You can look for related posts in What Should I buy or Home Theatre which will give you a fair idea....alternatively, you can click on member names to read related posts which we would have responded in the past....
All the best...don't rush...take your time and make a sound decision.
