SB 30 Complete home theatre soundbar speaker system featuring exclusive HARMAN Wave surround-sound technology and Dolby Volume with a 100-watt powered wireless subwoofer Home theatre installations typically involve five loudspeakers, a subwoofer or two, and lots of speaker wire. Not every room can accommodate all that stuff – and not everyone wants to live with it. As a far simpler, more elegant solution, the SB 30 home theatre soundbar system offers a single wireless subwoofer combined with an extremely advanced loudspeaker that connects directly to your TV, DVD, Blu-ray Disc player or game console. Where the SB 30 primarily differs from its predecessors is in terms of its ultra-new and exclusive HARMAN Wave surround-mode technology – which ultimately delivers a compelling surround-sound experience from 13 transducers fed by 11 amplified channels. As a classic overachiever, the sleek SB 30 soundbar supersedes expectations, delivering immersive, peakperformance sound for your films, TV shows and games. All from a system you barely know is there.

It can even be controlled by your T V remote. And with stereo playback and realistic 3-D surround-sound processing, not only is this system out of sight, but with minimal connections going in or out, the wires are too.
SB 10 3.1-channel passive home theatre soundbar speaker system containing three front-channel speakers and a 200-watt powered subwoofer Whether it’s resting on a table or mounted on the wall below your flat-screen TV, the SB 10’s custom-built soundbar and powerful subwoofer work skillfully as a team. Add an A/V receiver’s virtual-sound mode – or even another pair of satellite speakers to gain a more in-depth 5.1-channel surround-sound environment – and the SB 10 will transform any ordinary TV-viewing experience into an extraordinary one.

M S 15 0 A high-performance stereo system with a CD player, FM tuner and dock for your iPod/iPhone device More than 50 years ago, Harman Kardon engineers developed the world’s first stereo receiver – a high-performance component that combined the functions of several systems, which had previously been available only separately. That tradition continues, in style, with the advent of the multitalented MS 150 – a sophisticated music system and alarm clock that plays music from virtually any source. As a complete high-performance system with a CD player, an FM tuner and a universal docking station that’s designed to work with your iPod or iPhone device (not included), the MS 150 delivers high-fidelity sound from two 30-watt built-in bass-reflex loudspeakers in a compact, convenient and easy-to-use package. It also comes with auxiliary inputs for integration with other audio products – making the MS 150 a versatile music system that’s perfect for the home, office or wherever you like to take in your favourite music.
