Harman Kardon CP-65
$1,600.00
Released September, 2008
The Pros:Audio clarity and detail are very good. Surround effect is excellent, provides a good sense of space. General operation is pretty straight-forward, not very complicated.
The Cons:Not capable of very loud volume, restricted to small or medium sized rooms. All devices look a little basic and boxy, a bit of an ugly design. Setup instructions are a bit confusing.
