With a powerful receiver integrated with a Blu-ray Disc™/ DVD/CD player and FM tuner (with RDS), the Harman Kardon® BDS 700 is a beautifully compact system that transforms the home entertainment experience, reproducing movies and music from virtually any source with all the clarity and fidelity of the original material. It even plays iPod or iPhone files via a Harman Kardon The Bridge IIIP dock (not included). Identical, voicematched satellite speakers surround you with rich, realistic 3D sound. A dual-driver centre speaker delivers crisp, distinct movie dialogue, while a 200-watt, downward-firing powered subwoofer adds the deep, satisfying bass that’s so important in today’s most popular movies.
