If you're searching for a one-box solution that will transform your room into a powerful home theater experience, look no further. The Harmon Kardon CP 40 5.1-Channel Home Theater System will blow you away with exquisite audio reproduction. In the convenience of your own home, you can finally watch your favorite movies come alive with the CP 40. It offers you the same surround sound entertainment value you would expect from a night out at the movies.

The CP 40 system combines style, functionality and clarity with an impressive 5.1-channel (30W x5), 24-bit digital A/V receiver (AVR-144) and a progressive-scan multi-format DVD player (DVD-27). The included HKTS-15 home theater 5.1-channel (500W) speaker system is packaged with four satellite speakers, one (2-Way) center speaker, and a powered subwoofer that will simply knock your socks off. In one box, you get everything you need to treat yourself to superb DVD imagery and earth moving surround sound.

High-End Features

High-Current Amplification, A/V Sync Delay, Component Video Switching, Dolby Pro Logic decoding, super-fine slow motion, and a built-in video test signal are just a few of the high-end features offered in the CP 40 package. In addition, Harmon Kardon includes its exclusive Logic 7 processing technology to create a wider, more enveloping surround-sound environment with enhanced sound transitions for pans and fly-overs.

Logic 7 Processing

Originally developed for high-end processors, Logic 7 processing is packaged with the AVR-144. Proprietary digital algorithms are used to create a more cohesive and enveloping sound field from the tens of thousands of currently available analog matrix soundtracks. Logic 7 is capable of reproducing either five or seven channels of exquisite sound from your two-channel source.

5.1-Channel and Digital Audio Decoding

The AVR-144 uses specific Dolby Digital and DTS codecs to reproduce an enveloping 5.1-Channel surround sound experience. The unit encodes Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Virtual Speaker, Dolby Headphone, DTS, DTS 96/24, DTS Neo:6, and Logic 7 processing.

Multi-Format Playback Capability

The DVD-27 offers a full-range of playback capabilities for enjoying movies, music and images. It can playback DVD-Audio/Video, DVD-/RW, DVD+R/W, DVD-R, DVD+R, CD, CD-R/RW, SVCD/VCD, and MP3/WMA/JPEG files.

High Current Capability (HCC)

HCC is an overall design approach encompassing everything from transformer design and storage capacitor size to discrete output circuitry and minimal use of negative feedback. This enables the AVR-144 to combine tighter bass, superb transient response and enhanced presence at any volume level.

Digital Surround Sound

Harman Kardon's CP 40 reproduces Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital and DTS audio at a frequency response of 20Hz - 20kHz. The dynamic range of the CP 40 system is so well balanced and matched that the center, front and rear channels blend seamlessly.

Premium Quality Subwoofer

With its superior bass reproduction, the 10" 100W subwoofer is capable of handling all the punches. Several features include: level control, high-cut (low-pass) filter switch and the ability to accept line level and speaker level inputs.

Magnetically Shielded

The four satellite and center speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent picture interference when placed near your TV or display.

Color-Coding System

The CP 40 uses an easy-to-use surround-sound channel color-coding system established by Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). Included with this system are a set of colored stickers that you would use on the speakers and corresponding speaker wires, thus, making your speaker installation simple and fun.

Complete System

Just open the box and you will find everything you need to install the CP 40 in your home theater. The system includes: AVR-144 A/V receiver, DVD-27 progressive-scan DVD player, system remote control, HKTS-15 speaker system (six speakers, all speaker cables, and wall-mount brackets for satellites).

    5 of 5 Sweet! Monday, October 27, 2008
    Joystx from Fort Myers, FL  

    This system totally rocks! I was looking at the Sony & Panasonic because they offered wireless rear speakers. But those systems had ZERO possibilities as far as inputs/outputs were concerned. This system, however, has more inputs than you will ever need. And the subwoofer? I put Jurassic Park in and thought the T-Rex was gonna knock the big-screen over. You absolutely will not be dissappointed with this sytem.

    5 of 5 Great Home Theatre for the price Monday, September 15, 2008
    A Customer from Riverside, CA  
    This unit is about around 2 years old but it performs great! I bought it on special for $299 (brand new) after $100 mail in rebate so I got it for a great price. The powered sub was the most important thing to me, don't waste your money on a non-powered sub system. The sub is huge, sturdy and delivers some great bass at only half volume on the sub. The whole system looks really nice and sleek. Besides great looks, it sound wonderful! I have my PS3, Xbox360, PC, and cable TV connected to the CP-40 with optical cables which I highly recommend for ease of connection and superior sound quality. Only thing I didn't like was that you can't change over to optical input for Video 1, 2, 3 etc. from the AVR receiver, you need to do it on screen through the video/monitor out to your TV. Other than that, its a great system especially if you get it on sale.
