Two world-class brands come together to bring you amazing home entertainment.
The Cinesystem 500 brings two audio authorities together to raise your home theatre to the next level of personal enjoyment. The Harman Kardon® brand – a specialist in home audio since the 1950s – supplies its AVR 70 receiver to play movies, music, games and other media. The JBL® brand, which engineers speakers for the most prominent movie theatres and concert venues, contributes its 5.1-channel, six-piece Cinema 500 speaker system. When the AVR 70 pours audio/video entertainment through the Cinema 500 speakers, you benefit from the two brands’ combined expertise. The AVR 70 uses HDMI® inputs, a built-in USB port and other connectors to accept signals from high-definition television, AM/FM radio and other sources, and can process the signals in Dolby® or DTS® surround sound – technology that filmmakers use. The receiver feeds the sound to the Cinema 500 system, which has four identical, two-way, video-shielded satellite speakers, voice-matched with each other and with a video-shielded, dual-midrange centre speaker, plus an 8-inch (200-millimetre), 150-watt subwoofer. You’ll hear strong, clear, accurate sound ranging from deep bass at 32Hz to high notes at 20kHz. Two of the world’s most renowned and respected brands doing what they do they best – that’s the Cinesystem 500.
