Harman Kardon DVD49 (multi-region)

The most capable of all Harman Kardon multimedia players, the DVD 49 features video
upscaling to 1080p via an HDMI output, not to mention unsurpassed fidelity in the
reproduction of DivX Ultra, DVD-Audio, SACD, CD, MP3, WMA and JPEG discs. And it includes
front-panel inputs for playback from SD, MMC, Memory Stick and CompactFlash
cards, as well as from USB devices. If you worry that something this versatile must also
