A surround-sound spectacle.
If you're going to add surround sound to your home, you'll want to do it once - and do it right. That's why each HKTS 16 loudspeaker includes a sophisticated blend of harman kardon® components. They include five voice-matched satellite and center speakers and an attention-getting, 200-watt subwoofer that create an immersive, 360-degree surround-sound field. These system components are all engineered to work together - resulting in a rich, realistic, all-encompassing sonic performance with convincing sound effects. By delivering movie dialogue, music and effects in this high-quality fashion, the HKTS 16 ensures that you'll have a best-in-class cinema experience while it elevates your home theater from ordinary - to truly extraordinary.

Compact yet stunning modern design.
Stylish yet not too flashy, the HKTS 16 system is a decor-friendly complement to any entertainment center or home theater. As expertly crafted as any entertainment you might be watching on screen, the HKTS 16 is designed to please the eye with its glossy, black accents, polished surfaces and elegant symmetry - all indicative of the rich harman kardon® design heritage. One other area of the HKTS 16's appeal is its compact, unobtrusive dimensions, which significantly increase the number of places where you might consider putting the system.

Bring the bass home with a powerful, 200-watt subwoofer.
If you're going to watch an action film at home, you'll want to hear every crash, bang and boom the soundtrack has to offer. Hence, that's the mission of the HKTS 16's powerful, bass-pumping, 200-watt subwoofer - to deliver every shred of sound, just as the filmmakers intended. Offering deep, authoritative bass that heightens every ounce of Hollywood realism, the HKTS 16 subwoofer ultimately lends a richness and believability to whatever imagery you're seeing on screen - while remaining surprisingly unimposing off screen.

Gain complete control over your subwoofer.
The HKTS 16 surround-sound system comes with a powerful, 200-watt subwoofer that lets you fine-tune bass output for personal taste and room acoustics. Bass-boost and phase switches also allow you to optimize subwoofer performance - depending on the placement of speakers in the room. When you put the subwoofer properly in phase with the speakers, you'll generate a clearer result and more lifelike sounds for instruments such as drums, piano and plucked strings.

Protect against magnetic interference.
Unshielded loudspeaker components can influence the magnetic field in your TV, resulting in visible color shifts and possible damage. To avoid this problem, the HKTS 16 uses magnetically shielded loudspeaker components so it can deliver high-quality, high-performance results even when you place your loudspeakers near a TV. Radiation from the magnets inside the loudspeaker components will not interfere with the magnetic field in your TV - so, ultimately, whether you're in front of a traditional CRT or a flat-panel TV, you can continue watching undisturbed.
