Harman Kardon may not a name to say quickly or people will think you are talking about having sex in your car, but it is a name associated with high-end AV products for the home. These home theater systems, the HS300 and HS500 should be available to ship any day now. Both have a 5.1-channel receiver/DVD-Audio/Video player, five satellites, HDMI connectivity, 1080i video processing, subwoofer and a USB connection to other players - and, unlike many HT systems, they are not unstylish. Be prepared to part with $1199 for the 500 and $999 for the 300. – Ad Dugdale
