Amazon.com Product Description
Harman Kardon's DPR 2005 7.1-channel audio/video receiver is a must for videophiles and audiophiles alike, offering 7 channels of high-power amplification, full compatibility with the latest surround-sound formats, and 192 kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog audio chips. It's also Harman's first AV receiver to feature built-in progressive-scan digital video processing. The DPR 2005's newly designed digital-amplifier section--featuring a fully digital signal path from input to output--delivers high-power output with strong low-impedance drive abilities, empowering the receiver to drive even difficult speaker loads to ample volume levels.

The 120-watts-per-channel DPR 2005 features HDCD processing and Harman Kardon's exclusive switchable front-panel audio, video, and digital-audio connections (inputs switchable as outputs and vice-versa). The DPR 2005 also offers complete Quadruple Crossover digital bass management for all inputs--critical for balancing the inputs from different surround formats--including the 6/8-channel "direct" analog inputs to accommodate playback of high-resolution digital-audio formats such as DVD-Audio and SACD. The receiver's bass management seamlessly integrates these formats with any speaker system, regardless of the capabilities of the playback device.

Digital signals from sources like DVD players, HDTV set-top boxes, and CD players are routed directly to the receiver's DSP section and then to the digital-amplifier section, while remaining completely in the digital domain from input to the final amplifier output stage. This topology maintains maximum digital signal purity by eliminating multiple stages of A/D and D/A conversion, and the resulting distortion and noise that can occur in conventional amplifier designs. The DPR 2005 also includes a host of important features such as A/V Sync Delay for synchronizing the audio and video signals in systems using digital video displays, external video processors, or with digital sources such as PVRs, satellite, or digital cable; RS-232 connectivity for bidirectional remote control and firmware upgradeability; Harman Kardon's exclusive EzSet remote with 2-line LCD display; Dolby Virtual Speaker and Dolby Headphone surround processing; and even MP3 playback (through a digital-audio connection with your MP3-CD-compatible source component).

Of special interest to custom installers, the DPR 2005 offers extensive multi-room capabilities with assignable amplifier configuration and A-BUS Ready connectivity (2 jacks); a comprehensive selection of digital and analog video and audio connections, including 2 assignable, wide-bandwidth (50 MHz), HDTV-compatible component-video switching inputs; 6 digital-audio inputs, front-panel and S-video inputs and outputs; surround back channels assignable to remote zone; and a dedicated Zone II remote for multi room operation, among other features.

Harman Kardon's proprietary Logic 7 audio technologies deliver improved, derived multichannel reproduction from both matrix-encoded and 2-channel stereo recordings with derived stereo decoding (unlike the mono decoding provided by other 6.1 formats) for the back surround channels. Logic 7 is compatible with 96 kHz sources and offers 2 listening modes, Cinema and Music, for improved playback of both matrix-encoded movie soundtracks and 2-channel music recordings. The result is better imaging and separation along with a greater sense of envelopment and a more seamless sound field.

The DPR 2005 also uses Harman International's patented VMAx Virtual Theater audio processing, a DSP method of producing realistic, high-fidelity, 3-dimensional, 360-degree surround sound audio from 2-channel stereo and matrix-encoded multichannel audio sources, using just 2 loudspeakers or headphones.

Cheap but worked for a while.......2007-06-10

I've had this device for my Samsung SCH-a870 phone for a few months now, but recently 1 of the tabs broke off making it useless.
When it wasn't broken it sorta did its job. It didn't fit as snug as i had hoped and have had multiple times where the part that attached to the phone would come loose.

Just what I wanted.......2007-06-02

I tried other universal cell phone holders that either damaged the vent louvers or would not stay attached. This was the only one I found to stay in place and firmly hold my cell phone or ipod. My wife liked it so much I had to buy another one for me.

It works.......2007-01-20

It works... No frills, but it works. Could be better, but for the price?? Good deal.

universal car phone holder.......2007-01-20

I like the way it attaches to the vent or dash. I prefer the vent mount. The base of the holder should be larger so that the cell phone can rest securely in the holder. You have to pinch the adjustable sides very tightly or the phone will fall out. This could be eliminated with a larger base.
