WELCOME

As a consumer electronics company, Harman Kardon dates

back to the days of monaural sound and vacuum tubes. And

yet here we are, still going strong after more than 50 years,

still headed by our founder, Dr. Sidney Harman, and still

following our own path, in our own way. The question is, can a

brand revered by the very first audiophiles possibly

command the respect of the iPod® generation? We’re

delighted you asked.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe borrowed “less is more” from the poet

Robert Browning, implementing that aesthetic in his building designs.

We borrowed it from Mies. While minimalism has become a major force

in architecture, music and design, it has also been one of our guiding

principles from the very beginning. At Harman Kardon, we believe that

good design consists of essential elements presented in their purest

form, with an absence of excess or embellishment. We could go on and

on about this, but that would be icing on the cake. We don’t do icing.

It has long been a dream to create a media server that works like an entertainment

device, not a computer. This ideal player would be conversant in a universe of digital

storage technologies and formats, serving as the one go-to device to finally bridge the

gaping DVD/CD/music system/cell phone/camera divide. This is no longer just a dream –

behold, the Harman Kardon Digital Media Centers.

TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY

Harman Kardon was delivering high bandwidth before most people

realized it was a good thing. Technology leaders can only lead by example,

and we’ve been setting a series of very good examples for more than

50 years. Many of the technologies found in today’s finest amplifiers

were introduced by Harman Kardon. And we’ve always been quick to

adopt and improve on any good ideas we didn’t actually think of ourselves.

It doesn’t happen often, you understand, but it happens.

/ AUDIO/VIDEO RECEIVERS

A maximum number of options, a minimum number of buttons. Harman Kardon A/V

receivers employ the industry’s most advanced technologies to optimize the audio and

video clarity of any entertainment source, old or new. Yet even certified technophobes will

discover – once they stop trembling – that they can operate them successfully.

AVR 74577 xx 8855WW 77..22--CChhaannnneell AA//VV RReecceeiivveerr WWiitthh HHDDMMII™™ SSwwiittcchhiinngg//RReeppeeaatteerr aannddAAuuddiioo//VViiddeeoo PPrroocceessssiinngg

Connecting the dots to create the perfect picture. Today’s home entertainment systems are likely to

include a variety of sources and formats and, to make the most of them, they need to work together.

That’s what the AVR 745 is all about. HDMI single-wire connectivity? Times two. DCDi® by Faroudja

processing? Yes, with complete adjustments for each video input. iPod playback and navigation?

Check, with The Bridge universal dock and TC 30 remote. XM Ready® and USB-capable? Yes and yes.

With 85 watts of true power to drive each of seven channels, dual subwoofer outputs (the “.2” in 7.2),

and the EzSet/EQ™ II system to precisely tune the system’s performance parameters to the

requirements of your room, the AVR 745 is ideal for a large-scale home theater or a truly impressive

2-channel music system. Or both.

A/V receivers are like Swiss Army knives. Some are just more capable than others. The AVR 347 includes today’s most-wanted

technologies: DCDi by Faroudja processing, Simplay HD™-verified HDMI 1.2a connectivity, EzSet® equalization and A-BUS® multiroom

capability. All good. But the AVR 347 also features an intuitive user interface that makes all those technologies easier to set up and

actually use. Harman Kardon’s founder, Dr. Sidney Harman, has always believed technology should serve, not intimidate. The AVR 347

is a perfect case in point.


Don’t think of video scaling as an extra expense. Think of it as an investment in your existing video library. The AVR 247 is the most affordable

Harman Kardon receiver to upscale incoming video signals to the high-resolution 720p standard. But wait, there’s more. It features two

Simplay HD-verified HDMI inputs and EzSet/EQ technology. And, like all Harman Kardon receivers, it features a high-current, ultrawide-

bandwidth design for maximum fidelity. Is it the ideal receiver to rescue your pre-HD DVDs? That’s a call only you can make.

AVR 14755 xx 4400WW 55..11--CChhaannnneell AA//VV RReecceeiivveerr WWiitthh HHDDMMII SSwwiittcchhiinngg

Get connected. Two Simplay HD-verified HDMI inputs. Two 100MHz-capable component video inputs. Four S-video inputs. Six coax and

optical digital audio inputs. XM Ready and The Bridge connections. DTS®, Logic 7® and Dolby® surround sound processing technologies. The

AVR 147 is our most powerful 5.1-channel receiver, and one of the most versatile receivers out there.


Judge it feature for feature, or dollar for dollar. Generally speaking, people choose Harman Kardon components based on performance, not

price. But the AVR 146 can be chosen for either. Its two-input Simplay HD-verified HMDI switching, Cirrus Logic® 49510 signal processing,

A/V sync delay and a high-current amplifier design mean pure Harman Kardon sound. But at a price that’s lower than you’d expect.

THE BRIDGEOf course you can plug your iPod into any music system,

but why would you want to? You know the problem. Every

time you need to adjust your playlist or choose a new one,

you have to undock your iPod and the music abruptly stops.

Bummer (as would-be DJs of a certain age might put it). But

The Bridge changes that. It’s a universal iPod dock that

connects directly to most Harman Kardon A/V receivers and

the DMC 1000. And you can control it with the AVR or DMC

remote, guided by on-screen or front-panel menus that

you can read from across the room. Let the (gloriously

HISTORY

In 1953, Sidney Harman and Bernard Kardon formed a company to

introduce a highly sensitive FM tuner that was a revelation at the time.

The following year, they combined their superior tuner with a superior

amplifier, creating an unheard-of device, which they called a receiver. In

the years to come, landmark Harman Kardon products would lead the

transition from vacuum tubes to solid state, from mono to stereo, and

from analog to digital. With features that often broke new ground, and

performance that always set higher standards, nothing else ever

looked or sounded quite like Harman Kardon components. And that’s

just the way we wanted it.

HK 348522 xx 112200WW SStteerreeoo RReecceeiivveerr

Can the turntable and the iPod coexist peacefully? Yes, and elegantly. The insanely

powerful HK 3485 combines an audiophile’s must-haves (high-performance phono

preamp, preout/main-in jacks, high-current amplification) with the multichannel world’s

can’t-live-withouts (video switching and a subwoofer output). For good measure, it

tosses in a cable for a direct audio/video connection to your iPod, Zune™ or other MP3

player. The HK 3485 isn’t a snob about where the music comes from, as long as it

sounds great when it reaches its final destination – your ears.


The thing about specialists is, they’re very good at what they do. The HK 3385 was born

to make beautiful music. To that end, it features high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth

amplification – a signature Harman Kardon technology that delivers all the subtlety of

an original musical performance, whether reproduced from vinyl or your MP3 player of

choice. But even specialists enjoy a change of pace from time to time. So the HK 3385

also features four high-quality video inputs. A/V cable included.

Not everyone’s a movie buff. Some people care more about Rachmaninoff’s third piano

concerto than whatever Rosebud turned out to be. For them, and for music purists of all other

persuasions, Harman Kardon keeps the audio faith by offering a choice of powerful stereo

receivers engineered by and for people who, if given a choice, would prefer to be entertained with

their eyes closed.

More than a few of the earliest Harman Kardon products – some of them pushing 50 by now –

are still in use today, and some of our earliest CD and DVD players are surely among them. But

to fully experience the very highest resolution of today’s digital sources, you’ll need one of our

We weren’t looking to find a marketing niche for ourselves; we were

others who could hear what we heard. These days, Harman Kardon

has a business plan, R&D labs and a marketing department –

everything a prestigious company should have. But we’re still building

One-room systems are only ideal for one-room apartments. All Harman Kardon

7.1-channel A/V receivers are built with multiroom applications in mind. All include

assignable rear-channel amplifiers, all offer a second-zone control system, and all but

the AVR 247 include a second-zone remote control. Which means Harman Kardon

multiroom systems are easy to set up and use. So go ahead, spread out and enjoy

yourself. Your Harman Kardon entertainment system will be there for you.

ABH 444--RRoooomm AA--BBUUSS EExxppaannssiioonn HHuubb

One ABH 4 = four rooms; more ABH 4’s = many more rooms.

With A-BUS-equipped AVRs, the more ABH 4’s you have, the

more rooms you can serve – and the more music-hungry

constituents you can satisfy. But even without A-BUS

technology, the ABH 4’s onboard audio inputs allow you to

distribute audio from any receiver’s “Tape” or “Multiroom”

outputs to any room. You may even distribute content directly

from any handy CD or DVD player. As usual, Harman Kardon

has got you covered.

ABH 400044--ZZoonnee//88--RRoooomm AA--BBUUSS®® EExxppaannssiioonn HHuubb

Different music in different rooms. With an ABH 4000 hub, up to four different input sources and your Harman Kardon AVR, you

can easily divide your house into four separate entertainment zones, in which local customs and individual musical tastes may

prevail. Link in an A-BUS-equipped remote AVR and make its tuner, XM Radio and The Bridge accessible from throughout the

realm. May domestic bliss and your favorite music be with you.

AB 2AAmmpplliiffiieedd IInn--WWaallll MMoodduullee WWiitthh OOnnbbooaarrdd CCoonnttrroollssffoorr AA--BBUUSS AApppplliiccaattiioonnss

The ultimate keypad. The AB 2 connects to your A-BUS-

equipped AVR or ABH expansion hub to power your local

speakers without an additional amplifier. Also, it easily allows

you to select and control your listening sources as you enter a

room (and its key caps are swappable, to mirror your system),

or to power the system off as you depart. And during your

stay? The AB 2 has an infrared sensor to relay your every wish

to the AVR with virtually any Harman Kardon remote.

AB 1AAmmpplliiffiieedd IInn--WWaallll MMoodduullee ffoorr AA--BBUUSS AApppplliiccaattiioonnss

Often located next to the light switch, and every bit as

important. Controlling your A-BUS-equipped Harman Kardon

AVR in remote rooms, as well as powering remote speakers, is

as simple as a single connection to the AVR or the nearest ABH

expansion hub, and a link to the speakers. That will give you

the option of controlling local volume with the AVR’s second-

zone remote, or directly from the AB 1.

HE 1000EExxtteerrnnaall IInnffrraarreedd RReemmoottee SSeennssoorr

We don’t know of many people hiding Harman Kardon

components behind closed doors, but just in case. When you

think about it (and we have) a remote sensor for your system’s

IR remote only makes sense. What if your flat-panel video

monitor is in front of you (duh) and your AVR isn’t? Or what if

your receiver is upstairs and you’re not? One or more of our

HE 1000’s can put you in control of your AVR from anywhere

in your home. And although it’s usually considered impolite to

point, the IR sensors don’t seem to mind.

prevail. Link in an A-BUS-equipped remote AVR and make its tuner, XM Radio and The Bridge accessible from throughout the

realm. May domestic bliss and your favorite music be with you.

AB 2AAmmpplliiffiieedd IInn--WWaallll MMoodduullee WWiitthh OOnnbbooaarrdd CCoonnttrroollssffoorr AA--BBUUSS AApppplliiccaattiioonnss

The ultimate keypad. The AB 2 connects to your A-BUS-

equipped AVR or ABH expansion hub to power your local

speakers without an additional amplifier. Also, it easily allows

you to select and control your listening sources as you enter a

room (and its key caps are swappable, to mirror your system),

or to power the system off as you depart. And during your

stay? The AB 2 has an infrared sensor to relay your every wish

to the AVR with virtually any Harman Kardon remote.

AB 1AAmmpplliiffiieedd IInn--WWaallll MMoodduullee ffoorr AA--BBUUSS AApppplliiccaattiioonnss

Often located next to the light switch, and every bit as

important. Controlling your A-BUS-equipped Harman Kardon

AVR in remote rooms, as well as powering remote speakers, is

as simple as a single connection to the AVR or the nearest ABH

expansion hub, and a link to the speakers. That will give you

the option of controlling local volume with the AVR’s second-

zone remote, or directly from the AB 1.

HE 1000EExxtteerrnnaall IInnffrraarreedd RReemmoottee SSeennssoorr

We don’t know of many people hiding Harman Kardon

components behind closed doors, but just in case. When you

think about it (and we have) a remote sensor for your system’s

IR remote only makes sense. What if your flat-panel video

monitor is in front of you (duh) and your AVR isn’t? Or what if

your receiver is upstairs and you’re not? One or more of our

HE 1000’s can put you in control of your AVR from anywhere

in your home. And although it’s usually considered impolite to

point, the IR sensors don’t seem to mind.

HOME THEATER SPEAKER SYSTEMS

Let Harman Kardon make this simple for you. As you probably know, a 5.1-channel

speaker system consists of four satellite speakers, a center channel speaker

primarily for dialogue, and a powered subwoofer. So if you’re ordering a la carte,

that’s four from column A, one from column B and one from column C. Simple

enough. Except the center ought to be voice-matched to the satellites, the sub

shouldn’t overpower the center or the satellites, and all six should be matched to

your electronics. Suddenly, it’s not that simple. Unless you simply choose one from

the column of Harman Kardon HKTS speaker packages.

HKTS 1855..11--CChhaannnneell HHoommee TThheeaatteerr SSppeeaakkeerr SSyysstteemm

The speaker package for people who hate it when people talk during movies. The HKTS 18 is a powerful 5.1-channel solution with

dual midrange drivers in both the satellites and the center channel for heightened realism, and a 200-watt powered subwoofer for

bass that isn’t one bit intimidated by all that heightened realism. And those talkers? We guarantee they’ll find this a tough act to

compete against.


Please have your tickets ready. With a dual-driver center channel speaker for vivid, distinct movie dialogue, four compact but

powerful satellites to pull you into the action, and a 100-watt powered subwoofer for heart-stopping bass, the HKTS 15 system is

more than equal to all the excitement Hollywood is dishing out these days. Worlds colliding? Total nuclear annihilation? Child’s play.

HKS 9SSuurrrroouunndd SSppeeaakkeerrss

No matter how good things get, there’ll always be an upgrade.

HKS 9 speakers are identical to HKTS 18 speakers, except that

they’re available in pairs, for easily upgrading a 5.1-channel

HKTS 18 or CP 65 system to 7.1 channels. The additional

speakers add a surround back channel for the ultimate in

cinema-like sound.

HTFS 2FFlloooorr SSttaannddss

Designed to position any HKTS satellite at an ideal height for

seated listeners, these aluminum floor stands feature a cable-

management system to keep speaker wires out of sight.

(You’re welcome.)


Don’t look behind you. There’s nothing back there but your

HKS 6 speakers, faking you out by delivering a back channel

that the 5.1 HKTS 15 and the CP 60 system, by themselves,

cannot. We’ll admit that it can be a little spooky at first,

especially if it sounds like the overnight delivery guy driving up,

or anything else that might actually be happening in the real

world. But you’ll learn to cope.

You walk into a theater, buy some popcorn and enjoy the show. The movie-watching

process ought to be just as straightforward at home. But without in-house

technicians to handle your system’s setup and troubleshooting, can it ever be that

easy? Harman Kardon complete home theater systems make it easier than you may

think. With perfectly matched high-performance components controlled by a single

remote, we’ve engineered most of the complexity out of the home theater equation –

without compromising any of the performance characteristics we hold dear.

CP 6555..11--CChhaannnneell HHoommee TThheeaatteerr SSyysstteemm

The CP 65 system brings together some of the most powerful and capable components made

by Harman Kardon, to deliver a totally immersive cinematic experience at home. Teaming an

AVR 347 and a DVD 48 with the HKTS 18 (our top-of-the-line multichannel speaker package) is

a lot like casting a motion picture strictly from Hollywood’s A-list – the results are electrifying.
