Summary: Great 5.1 sytem
Comment: I almost want to give these 4 stars because they don't have the range of full sized floor standing speakers. The reason they get a five is bang for the buck. And I hate saying that because it sounds like I'm saying a crappy product that's cheap. Really, these speakers are just amazing. I have them paired up with the HK AVR 254. The highs are crisp and sharp while the sub, albeit only 100 watts, is the best 100 watt sub I've ever heard. Loud, full, deep just like a much higher wattage sub.
This speaker set really is just outstanding not just in performance though. They have a reflective black casing and hard grill making them nearly invisible when watching a movie in the dark, but when the lights are on or the sun is out, the speakers are just really slick looking. HK didn't even spare on packaging supplies. Each speaker was wrapped in a material that felt like silk. Just amazing quality everywhere from performance -> look -> packaging. You just can't go wrong.

Summary: sound real ..!!!
Comment: the set of horns Harman Kardon home theater is the most resemblance to the reality of a sound in cinema, and I dare say that even better. The films get a feeling of absolute realism. The music concert makes you feel as if you were in the same salon where the music was recorded. We all components that brings the theater in a box at home is enough to unpack and install, they do not need anything extra just the tool for placing the speakers wall and a bit of subtlety where to place the cables. If you want to get a quality, lightness and power of sound does not cease to obtain a set of horns harman kardon.

Summary: Great value & sound quality.
Comment: After a lot of online research and customer reviews from various sources, including consumerreports[...] on the best home theater systems & speakers, Onkyo was rated the best receiver and Harmon Kardon the best speakers in terms of price, quality and features. Believe me, HK was rated better than Bose...which is three times the price! This was my first A/V receiver purchase (Onkyo TX-SR606) and HTIB system combined w/HK speakers which I purchased at Amazon too. Easy install instructions. I have a 46" Samsung 1080p LCD HDTV which was connected with one HDMI input from the receiver. The cable box and the Sony PS (can be used as a Blue Ray player) was connected to the receiver with HDMI cables. I also connected an optical cable to the TV for audio playback, if necessary. HK speakers come with enough wires, but I bought 14guage speaker wires from Flatwire[...] and concealed the wires myself. The Flatire speaker wires, a bit pricey (u can buy 12,14,18 guage), are paper thin and can be installed & concealed on the wall surface w/o having to cut thru walls. HK speaker sound is amazing. Beware, the sub-woofer has to be kept under control, the sucker will blow your room....! Just kidding. My room is average size so I keep the SW level at a quarter of its full potential! Speakers and SW look very sleek and aesthetic. The only problem I found was the HK speaker mounts were not very easy to install. But not a major issue. Overall, Harmon-Kardon has kept its reputation of quality and value. Highly recommended.

Summary: Harman Kardon HKTS-15 5.1 Channel Speaker System Revew
Comment: Ordered via Amazon. Excellent delivery service. Bought after a few weeks of research looking for smaller sized home theatre speaker system at value price but excellent sound. Very satisfied with purchase. Sound is excellent for price and glad I did not spend more. Like other reviews I read, was surprised at size of subwoofer and ended up having to move it to another corner of the room and do more wiring than planned.
Made 4 stars instead of 5 because speaker mounts only allow allow for rotation from right to left. I figured I could just buy better wall mounts but because speakers require mounting from the bottom, I was unable to find any wall mounts that would work with this non-standard location of the screw placement (these are bottom instead of backside). However, best sound (for rear speakers) in my room setup seems to be when they are pointed directly across the room from each other, so I really did not have a need for better mounts anyway.
Overall really like the sharp style and great sound from such a small set of speakers. The kit comes with plenty of long speaker wires but note you should get speaker wire designed for in wall use to be to code. I ordered all my wire and accessories such as banana plugs and wall plates from mycablemart.com as I thought their prices were good, but there are lots of places to order this stuff. I would recommend this purchase for the value-oriented consumer looking for good home theatre sound and a fair price assuming you couple it with a good AV receiver (I coupled this with an Onkyo TX-SR606).

Summary: Good Value
Comment: Great sound at this price. Only complaint is the mounting options. If this is your price range, this is a good set to buy.
