Product Description
For the consumer who wants all video options in one convenient package, model SC-HT820V is the world's first integrated five-DVD/CD home theater system to also include VHS VCR. The system features 500W of total output power for true home theater surround sound. Included is a vertical 5 DVD/CD changer mechanism with Panasonic's easy-to-use play 1 change 4 function.

Amazon.com Product Description
Geared for the 21st century, Panasonic's multidisc SC-HT820V offers high-quality audio and video from a system that's as compact as it is easy to assemble. All you need is a television and a living room--the SC-HT820V provides the 5-disc DVD and single VHS-tape playback, the surround-sound processing, the radio tuning, and the multichannel audio delivery.

The system pumps 370 low-distortion watts of total power through a specially matched six-speaker system (left, center, right, left and right surround, and low-frequency subwoofer). And its versatility with media playback--from DVD to VHS videocassettes, MP3/WMA CDs, and JPEG image CDs--means you're never far from your favorite movies, music, or digital photos. Topping it off, the system's DVD-Audio abilities offer super high-fidelity (192 kHz/24-bit) sound from specially formatted, music-oriented DVD-Audio discs. DVD-Audio offers super high-fidelity (192 kHz/24-bit) sound; DVD-Audio discs provide multichannel and stereo sound, incredible storage capacity, and unique bonus materials not available on regular audio CDs.

Your DVD movies will look and sound great through the system's 54 MHz/10-bit video decoder, Panasonic's video Depth Enhancer, progressive-scan video output (for use with high-definition and HD-ready televisions), and Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, and DTS discrete 5.1-channel surround decoding and rendering. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. This feature can only be appreciated on high-definition and HD-ready TVs.

The VCR's 4-head design ensures smooth slow-motion play (forward and reverse) and clear still-frame images, and with hi-fi sound the unit records and plays back stereo audio tracks. SAP audio receptions lets you listen to alternate-language tracks on select broadcast programming, and the unit boasts the ability to record in extra-long, 5x mode--just don't expect superior video quality at that setting. It also offers high-speed (600x) rewind--crucial when you're running late in returning videos!

The speaker set includes 4 wall-mountable bookshelf satellite speakers (front and rear left and right) powered by 30 watts each, a 110-watt center-channel speaker (critical for handling most of a movie's dialogue), and a powerful, 140-watt, subwoofer with a 6.5-inch driver, optimized for unobtrusive placement. All speakers are magnetically shielded to protect your TV from distortion induced by the speakers' magnetic fields. A digital-synthesized FM/AM tuner with 30 station presets (15 FM, 15 AM) lets you listen to your favorite radio stations.

What's in the Box
DVD player/receiver, 4 satellite speakers, 1 center-channel speaker, a powered subwoofer, a remote control, remote batteries, FM/AM antennas, a user's manual, an RF video cable, a composite-video cable, a system cable, a sheet of speaker-cable stickers, an antenna plug, an AC power cord, and all requisite speaker cabling.
