HT-BD8200 Blu-ray Home Theater Sound Bar

The Samsung HT-BD8200 is the first home theater sound bar equipped with a Blu-ray player and wireless subwoofer, which delivers a streamlined, HD surround sound solution built to expand the prowess of any home theater. It features a fully integrated Blu-ray player with Full HD 1080p playback and virtual 5.1-channel surround sound for a lifelike audio presence.

As a self-contained, wall-mountable home theater sound bar, the HT-BD8200 is designed to fit in with today’s contemporary décor and lifestyle. It is only 2.6 inches deep and accented with Samsung’s Touch of Color™ (ToC™) design, for a classy, yet cutting-edge look. The included wireless subwoofer provides a superior blend of effective audio performance and interior design flexibility just about anywhere in the home.

The HT-BD8200 is also equipped with Samsung’s “Smart Volume” technology for volume level adjustments on-the-fly for superb listening levels without the need to continually pick up the remote. It also offers seamless playback of video, photos, or music from digital devices such as media players, mobile phones, and digital cameras, using either the built-in USB port or Bluetooth™ wireless connectivity. Multimedia disc playback and an included iPod dock add even more versatility to the system’s cachet.

Equipped with wireless networking via an 802.11 b/g/n and optional USB dongle, the HT-BD8200 is compatible with BD-Live (Profile 2.0) interactive features and can access Netflix for instant streaming video or Pandora music.

The Samsung HT-BD7200 2.1-channel Blu-ray home theater is ideal for consumers seeking sophisticated décor, superior performance, and comfort in their home theater solutions. Its compact design can fit into even the smallest rooms, making it more practical for deploying a full-sized multi-speaker home theater system.

The HT-BD7200 is a self-contained device that only appears diminutive. The system pumps out an impressive 400W output and simulated 5.1-channel surround sound using just two speakers. To enhance audio fidelity, it features an improved amplifier engine designed to minimize amplifier and power supply noise. The speaker unit itself is constructed from kelp, a natural material providing more audio clarity compared with conventional paper cone units. The system is also equipped with wireless networking via an optional 802.11 b/g/n USB dongle for additional convenience, and a speedy boot up time that is 2x faster than the industry standard.

The HT-BD7200 is dressed in Samsung’s latest ToC™ treatment, providing a luxurious charcoal grey coating to the black bezel of the system.
