Let the Harman Kardon story unfold. We don’t just make commodities. We create experiences. Because high-quality audio/video products are more than just boxes with knobs and buttons, this brochure is more than just a catalog of features and specifications; it’s an expression of our uncompromising goals. And it’s a declaration of our passion for music and cinema. We invite you to experience the unique combination of artistry and engineering that is Harman Kardon.
What’s the point of whiz-bang technology if it’s too complicated to use? Chances are, nobody had to show you how to “operate” a rubber ball...or a pencil...or even a clock
radio.They were intuitive. Sad to say, that’s not the case with much of today’s audio/video products. At Harman Kardon we believe that a home theater or music system’s reason for being should be
entertainment and enjoyment, not button-pushing and menu navigation. So although we make some of the most feature-rich home entertainment products on the planet,
we constantly strive to make sure they’re easy to use. For every member of your family. Not just your techno-savvy kids.
Our newest remote control is a good example. Instead of having to look up and input codes, you just tell it the brand of your TV, CD player, VCR, etc. Touch a button on the remote and a lighted display automatically tells you the function. It doesn’t get much easier...which is the whole point.
So share the combination of passion and vision that sets Harman Kardon apart and we hope you will soon be the proud owner of one of our premium entertainment components.
We make elusive technology easy to grasp.
“Technology can get you most of the way to good sound…but
that last critical leap to state-of-the-art reality comes only from endless hours of critical listening – and a deep, almost fanatical love of all types of music and every sort of movie.
“Ever since I helped found Harman Kardon, we’ve been fanatical about maintaining a balance between pure engineering and what
audio engineering’s true result should be – a more realistic entertainment experience. Each step forward – and I’m proud to say that Harman Kardon has led the industry in technological advances – has been measured with a simple question: ‘Does it take us closer to the musical truth?’
“We’re driven by a passion for

“You don’t get the answer to that question merely with laboratory tests and measurement devices. Yes, the best test device is
the human ear. But Harman Kardon relies just as much on the human heart and soul. Only when music and cinema become passions in themselves can our engineers create technology that is audibly better than our competition’s.
“When you experience firsthand the electronics and speakers described in this brochure I am confident you will agree that owning
a Harman Kardon product sets you apart from the crowd. It is a validation of your own desire to command the ‘best seat in the house’ no matter what kind of music or cinema you enjoy.”

Innovation is a combination of major technological breakthroughs and smaller, detail-level enhancements. To deliver the right combination of power, performance, flexibility and ease of use, Harman Kardon has always sought to strike a balance. We carefully weigh the development of key enhancements of the basic underpinnings of audio and video technology against the importance of making these enhancements accessible to both the advanced audiophile and the home theater novice.
More muscle for maximum punch: High Current Capability
Watts per channel is an incomplete measure of amplifier power. In terms of dynamic range and impact, it’s current that counts. HCC is an overall design approach encompassing everything from transformer design and storage capacitor size to discrete output circuitry and minimal use of negative feedback. This electronic equivalent of a high-torque, high-displacement racing engine results in audible benefits.You enjoy tighter bass, superb transient response and enhanced presence at any volume level.
A better approach to sound: Logic 7
®
When the engineers at Harman Kardon set out to find ways to improve the playback of multi­channel sound, they came up with significant improvements that build upon recent advance­ments in digital technology and take them to the next level: Logic 7.®Originally developed for high-end processors and now featured in luxury automobiles, Logic 7 processing is now part of every A/V receiver we offer.
With Logic 7, proprietary digital algorithms are used to create a more cohesive and enveloping sound field from the tens of thousands of analog matrix soundtracks currently available. Logic 7 is not only capable of resolving either five or seven channels from a two-channel source; it increases the accuracy with which sounds are directed to the center and surround channels, for more pre­cise reproduction of the original soundtrack.
When only two will do: VMAx
®
Despite the marketplace focus on multichannel surround sound, there are still many situations where it is only possible to include two speakers in a room’s environment – thus sacrificing the benefits of a 360° sonic presentation. Harman Kardon has solved that problem with its exclusive implementation of VMAx
®
technology in both multichannel receivers and stereo receivers.
Using a series of complex calculations based on intensive research into the way sounds are heard and processed by the brain, VMAx creates a three-dimensional sound field using only conventional left and right front speakers. The result is sound that fills a room and puts you at front row, center.
The science of passion:

Switchable front-panel jacks
This one will go to the top of your “Why didn’t I think of that?” list. Front-panel input jacks are a common sight on many audio/video products, but that doesn’t help when you want to send a source out of the receiver, for dubbing to a portable device. Rather than force you to fish around the back of your system, Harman Kardon makes things easy by making it possible to switch the video, analog audio and digital audio jacks on the front panel of select AVRs from an input to an output. With one quick change of a menu setting, any digital or analog source playing through the AVR is routed to the front panel so that you can make your dub for the day and be on your way.What could be simpler?
Your own personal audio technician: EzSet™quick surround setup
The individual channel levels of a state-of-the-art movie theater surround system have been carefully calibrated by trained technicians. EzSet™speaker calibration does the same for your Harman Kardon home cinema system. EzSet uses a built-in sound pressure measurement and calibration system that lets you automatically balance speaker channel levels for optimum surround sound enjoyment – regardless of the speaker type or room conditions. Push a few buttons and in less than three minutes, your Harman Kardon system is calibrated. Bottom line, the adjustment most critical to multichannel movie soundtrack reproduction has been made virtually foolproof!
4x CD-R dubbing
In an age when we always seem to be short on time, who wants to wait any longer than necessary when building a music library or creating “party discs”? Harman Kardon agrees, and that’s why we were the first to introduce a dual-deck CD recorder with 4x dubbing when others said it couldn’t be done.Thanks to Harman Kardon engineering, you can make a copy of an hour­long program in fifteen minutes, while also speeding up other key recorder functions.We know that you’re in a hurry to hear the music and don’t want to waste time recording it!
Color-coded connections
At Harman Kardon, we believe that connecting a new audio/video receiver should be quick and simple so that you can get right to the movies and music.That’s why we were the first brand to offer a complete set of color-coded input, output and speaker connection jacks and terminals on the back of every product we sell. With modern receivers featuring up to eight channels of audio, four video signal channels, digital audio and multiroom systems, it can be difficult to remember which plug goes where. However, with Harman Kardon’s easy-to-see color-coding, you’ll never again have a problem telling the Surround Back Left speaker output from the Component Video Pb input.

digital path receiver technology
production houses and DVD pressing plants, to the output of your DVD player.
However, once these digital signals reach your home they are processed in various ways that make them resemble digital islands connected to the analog world by bridges. In an A/V receiver these bridges include the analog-to-digital converters on the front end of a system and the digital-to-analog converters (DACs) at the back end which convert the digital signal back to analog after the processor, or DSP, has done its work.
Digital signals are virtually free from interference, but each time they are taken apart or put back together there is the opportunity for bits to be lost or for the signal to be degraded. No matter how good the converters are – and Harman Kardon uses some of the best available – some change to the signal is inevitable.
LCD display and both learning and programmable functions? Certainly! The list goes on and on. After all, the DPR is a Harman Kardon receiver at heart, and no one knows how to build a receiver better than the company that invented the receiver almost 50 years ago.
Then there’s the sound. It’s everything you would expect from Harman Kardon and more.
Advanced technology is a bonus, but it’s the music and movies that count. The DPR 1001 Digital Path Receiver takes the shortest course, direct from the original source to your speakers, preserving the quality of the performance. That was the reason digital technology was originally applied to home entertainment. With Harman Kardon’s new digital path receiver, the promise of Power for the Digital Revolution

is finally realized.
heat sinks, large transformer and cooling fan means not only that the system is totally silent; it is considerably smaller. This gives you more freedom for the placement of a home
entertainment system thanks to the ability to fit a DPR-based receiver in places where you never thought a high-quality audio system could fit.

An easy-to-use, yet powerful remote control, complete with an
Unfortunately, when digital circuits exist as individual blocks, the potential for trouble has been unavoidable. Until now.
With the introduction of the DPR 1001 Digital Path Receiver, Harman Kardon eliminates the need to convert digital signals back to analog between the output of the DSP and the input to the amplifier. How is this done? The simplest way to describe the process is to say that the inefficient power supply, oversized transformers, heat-producing power transistors and large, heavy heat sinks of traditional analog amplifiers are eliminated and replaced with totally digital circuitry.
The incredible system efficiency of the digital design – over 80% as compared to slightly more than 55% in a conventional design – means you have seven full channels of high-quality amplification without the need to remove heat. As important, removing the
Since the introduction of the Compact Disc in 1982, digital tech­nology has gradually taken over the home entertainment world. Initially used only for playback sources such as CDs, the use of digital technology has expanded to include the recording and distribution of virtually all forms of programming. It’s also used to compress and process audio signals so that up to eight channels of discrete information may be stored in the space of two. Dolby

Digital, DTS®and MP3 are, each in its own way, examples of how digital technology is used to extend the playback options for audio.
Indeed, the digital soundtracks played back on a DVD or through a digital cable box, satellite receiver or HDTV set-top increasingly start with digital recording, and digital technology keeps them pristine along their travels from soundstage to movie theaters to

DPR 1001 7 x 50W Digital Path Receiver
Pure digital. Once again, Harman Kardon breaks the rules and sets a new standard for advanced technology. This time we’ve leapfrogged conventional technology to create the first true digital path A/V receiver. Simply put, the audio signal remains digital all the way from the disc through to the digital amplifiers.This unique, all-digital approach results in a dramatically smaller form factor, much cooler operating temperatures, enhanced reliability, and flexibility in output assignment.
At the heart of the DPR 1001 is a sophisticated audio/video switching, control and decoding system. Choose from Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX 6.1, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS 5.1 and DTS-ES. Also available are DTS Neo:6, Logic 7 and VMAx. Select HDTV sources or progressive scan DVD players without compromising picture quality, thanks to wide-bandwidth component video switch­ing. You can send separate audio and video programs to a second room in your house. Digital bass management options include a Triple Crossover system and full control over the “Direct” inputs for use with DVD-Audio and SACD players.
If you enjoy owning the latest technology – or if you simply want an extremely compact and stunningly styled receiver – consider the DPR 1001.
The digital path to reality. Until recently, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) amplifiers
were used mostly in subwoofer systems and entry-level DVD/receiver combinations. They simply didn’t have the musicality necessary for quality reproduction across the full audio spectrum. As in every other area of digital engineering, nothing stays the

DPR Remote Controller
Not just another “universal” remote. The DPR’s internal sophistication is further enhanced with the external simplicity of a completely new remote control design. With the EzSet™feature, the DPR remote makes surround sound level setup a breeze. It includes a built-in sound pressure level meter and calibration system that takes the complexity out of balancing your multichannel system.
And instead of having to look up codes and enter numbers, you just “tell” the DPR remote the brands of your TV and other components and it does the rest, thanks to internal firmware programming.When you select a source other than the DPR 1001, the remote’s backlit, two-line LCD screen shows you the function for each button you select. No more guessing. No more “oops.”
same for long. Harman Kardon engineers have tapped into the very latest advances in PWM, including multiple pole-zero feedback systems, increased sampling speeds in excess of 350kHz and new logic chip designs, to harness the potential of Pulse Width Modulation in our DPR 1001.

Movies, sound and music have been together since Jolson sang, Fred and Ginger danced and Rocky Horror went to the picture show. While some credit digital technology for marrying the intensity of sight to the pleasure of sound, the use of music to enhance a
film’s storyline has been there from the beginning. Indeed, even before “The Jazz Singer” ended the silent movie era forever, operatic tenors were used for early movie sound experiments. From Busby Berkley in the Thirties to extravaganzas in the Fifties… from Elvis’s “Jailhouse Rock” to rock operas of the Sixties and Seventies…from the peace and love of “Woodstock” to the grim drama of “Apocalypse Now,” music and movies have always gone hand in hand.
Even when music isn’t at the forefront of the drama, it often provides the signature that binds our emotions to a film. Think of the banjo accompaniment in “Deliverance.” It seems simple, yet at the same time is a key part of a multilayered story. Recall the memorable songs that set the mood of “Midnight Cowboy” or “American Graffiti.” No, these movies weren’t musicals, but without music they wouldn’t have been the same.
Sometimes just a few musical notes forever become a part of our movie experience.The foreboding cello stabs in Jaws, the tone code pattern of “Close Encounters,” the four notes of Strauss we will forever associate with images of the ape and the monolith in
Passion in full view — the

marriage of audio and video.
“2001: A Space Odyssey.”Would your vision of these films be the same without the sound bites to which they are forever linked? Today, sound is an essential element of every movie – think of “Gladiator,” “Moulin Rouge,” “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” or
“The Phantom Menace.” Space ships or jets fly from one corner of the screen to another. Cars – even entire universes – explode before your eyes.Aliens converse and even sing in strange tongues. Computers whir, clocks tick, engines roar, and everything has to be positioned in the proper place to mesh seamlessly as the story unfolds on the screen.
Thanks to the use of digital audio technology in both the creation and playback of cinema soundtracks, movies are, to use the old slogan, “better than ever.” Using some of that same digital technology, Harman Kardon brings the total sensory side of the movie experience home, complete with lush soundtracks, precisely positioned effects and flawless dialogue reproduction. In addition, our DVD players produce perfect pictures to match the sound.
Movies and music.We’ve all enjoyed that seat in a darkened theater, that magical place where pictures and sound come together. Now, with Harman Kardon, you can bring that best seat in the house right into your own home.
DVD 25 Progressive Scan DVD Player DVD 101 Progressive Scan DVD Player

CDR 26 Dual-Drawer CD-R/RW Player/Recorder
Think of the CDR 26 as a “dubbing cassette deck for the digital millennium.” Make your own custom CDs with just your favorite tracks, or copy an entire disc using inexpensive CD-R blanks. The CDR 26’s 4X dubbing speed allows you to copy an hour-long program in fifteen minutes – and speed up other key recorder functions. It also features synchronized recording from external sources: the recorder starts at exactly the same time as the source, which can be digital or analog. Finally, the CDR 26 is also a superb CD player with continuous two-disc or one-time/one-disc playback, headphone jack with level control and full-featured ergonomic remote control.
FL 8380 CD Changer
If you want high-quality music playback that can run uninterrupted throughout the day – or for the length of the party – the FL 8380 is for you. This five-disc CD changer has a wide range of programming options to play back the perfect mix while High Definition Compatible Digital®(HDCD®) processing delivers the most realistic sound processing to date from both HDCD-encoded and standard discs. High-end Burr-Brown®digital processors convert the digital signals back to analog without inducing any artifacts; or use the coax digital output to connect the FL 8380 directly to the processor in your A/V receiver.
HKB 6 6-Inch, 2-Way Bookshelf Speaker
The HKB 6 should be evaluated in terms of dramatic sonic output rather than diminutive dimensions. It delivers full, rich, musically inviting sound. A 6-inch polymer-reinforced low-frequency transducer is matched to a vented cabinet design for high efficiency and low bass extension. A titanium-coated, 3/4-inch tweeter floats detailed treble over a wide listening area. If you’re looking for a compact speaker that reproduces music and movie soundtracks with outstanding presence and impact, this is the model for you.
HKB 4 4-Inch, 2-Way Bookshelf Speaker
Small size. Commanding output. You’ll see they aren’t mutually exclusive when you hear our HKB 4’s. As with the HKB 6, we challenged our engineers to create a speaker that was big in all but physical size.They responded with a 4-inch, long-throw, polymer-reinforced low-frequency transducer and 3/4-inch high-frequency transducer comprised of 75 percent titanium on a lightweight substrate – elegantly housed in a high-density enclosure with a “floating” grille panel.
HKC Dual 5-Inch, 2-Way Center Channel Speaker
The center channel of a home cinema system is no place to compromise – you need wide frequency response with strong bass. The HKC satisfies those requirements with dual, polymer-reinforced, 5-inch mid/low-frequency transducers as well as a titanium­laminate, 3/4-inch high-frequency tweeter. Compact enough to fit on almost any television set, the HKC has the output and accuracy to deliver precise dialogue reproduction.

HKSUB 12 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer
Feel the explosive power of today’s action movie soundtracks or provide deep bass to bookshelf speaker music systems. The HKSUB 12’s long-throw, front-firing, 12-inch low-frequency transducer is powered by a 150-watt RMS internal power amplifier for floor-shaking, low-end impact. Includes speaker-level L/R parallel inputs and outputs, and level, filter frequency and phase controls.
HKTW 6 6-Inch, 2-Way Tower Speaker
When you want a larger-scale sonic environment for action movies or concert-level music volume, the floorstanding HKTW 6 tower is a perfect choice. It delivers articulate bass, a detailed midrange and crystalline treble dispersed over a wide listening area. While its larger enclosure allows the 6-inch, composite low-frequency transducer to achieve bass extension down to 48Hz, the HKTW 6 is still small enough to be décor-friendly. Video shielding, a 3/4-inch, titanium-coated high-frequency transducer and quality 5-way binding posts are also featured.
