Panasonic SC-PT480 DVD Home Theater Sound System

With 1000 watts (RMS) of total power the Panasonic SC-PT480 DVD Home Theater Sound System has the audio power to fill a large living room but it's small enough to fit in a den or bedroom.

It's versatile too. It can play a wide variety of CD and DVD formats and it can do all sorts of neat tricks like zooming the picture in case you want to examine a portion of DVD scene or JPEG picture in greater detail. You'll see that detail sharply thanks to features like the SC-PT480's 108MHz/12-bit video digital to analog converter (DAC) and its HDMI 1.3 output.

HDMI carries signals in pure digital form so if you plug into a high definition TV your entire DVD library will take on a new life with sharper, clearer pictures.

In addition to an improved picture from your DVDs you'll enjoy a number of different surround sound modes including Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS from all sources. Those sources can include up to 30 preset FM radio stations and your iPod. This unit's universal iPod dock is compatible with dozens of iPod models. Depending on the model you own it can play music and video and display the titles on a connected TV. (TV sold separately.)
