The Kenwood NHT-810DV network home theater in a box combines the best of both worlds by merging your home entertainment center and computer into one powerhouse system. Connect the NHT-810DV's receiver to your PC via the rear-panel ethernet port and you can start streaming audio and video files from your computer directly to your home theater. It also sports a front-panel PCMCIA card slot so you can view pictures from your digital camera or access digital media files on your television via the easy to use graphical interface.

The NHT-810DV comes outfitted with a front panel game audio/video input that automatically recognizes when you turn your game console on and instantly configures the correct sound processing. It also comes with a pre-programmed universal remote control with built-in Xbox and PlayStation2 codes. And if you want to play games while the family listens to music, you can slip on headphones and enjoy Dolby Headphone processing for 5.1 channel surround sound for the complete gaming experience.

Fire up the DVD player and enjoy progressive scan clarity on your HD-capable television, along with life-like 6.1-channel surround sound with Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES 96/24 surround sound, and Dolby Pro Logic IIx.
