• 1080p DVD Upconversion
• 5.1Ch Front Layout/Surround, 1000 Watts
• HDMI w/ ARC (Audio Return Channel)

(March 2011)

The SC-XH150 Home Theater System incorporates a wide variety of Panasonic technologies for high quality sound. The Clear Sound Digital Amplifier and Down Firing Subwoofer reproduce a clear, dynamic sound that wouldn't be expected from the compact size of the main unit and speakers.

Clear Sound Digital Amplifier

The Clear Sound Digital Amplifier analyzes the difference between the input and output audio signals, and makes the necessary adjustments to produce an output signal with the same low distortion as the input signal. This results in sound that is highly faithful to the original sound source.

iPod/iPhone Capability

The home theater system is a great way to enjoy the music, video and photo content on your iPod or iPhone. The list of iPod/iPhone content can be displayed on the TV screen, and you can use the remote control from the home theater system or a VIERA TV to select and play it.

ARC (Audio Return Channel)

The home theater system is compatible with the ARC (Audio Return Channel) feature. ARC makes it possible to receive audio signals from the TV, on top of the preexisting HDMI function of sending audio/video signals to the TV with just one cable. This feature simplifies connection by eliminating the audio cable connection between the TV audio output and the main unit's audio input.

* ARC compatible TV is required.
