THE BRIDGE
TC 30
A single connection from The Bridge™to a The Bridge-Ready Harman Kardon receiver provides audio playback,
®1
complete control and charging of most iPod
models. You can select tracks using your AVR’s remote and view
on-screen navigation menus. What could be easier?
Wouldn’t it be nice it you could use simple language to tell your remote what equipment it needs to control, have
it automatically program the correct codes and then adapt each activity to your personal preferences? Thanks to
Harman Kardon technology – programmable via the Internet – that’s exactly what the TC 30 can do, with a color
LCD screen as an added bonus!

7.2-channel capability, TC 30 remote and more make this the most flexible AVR we’ve ever produced.
7 x 55W 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver
Tune up your room; no tools required. Thanks to EzSet/EQ, the AVR 340 not only establishes all system speaker
parameters, it measures how the speakers “sound” in your room and equalizes their output to compensate for any
room-based acoustic situation. Add a wide range of convenience features such as video cross conversion, component
output for simplified connectivity, A-BUS/
READY multiroom capability, and compatibility with The Bridge, and you’ll be
enjoying movies and music quicker than ever.
7 x 50W 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver
For high quality “by the numbers” the AVR 240 is clearly best in class. Seven channels of high-current amplification,
Logic 7®processing, 192kHz/24-bit digital converters, two high-bandwidth component video inputs, a two-line frontpanel display and more inputs and outputs than you can count.
Add the power of EzSet+ to automatically set system
speaker levels, and it all adds up to a magnificent total of high-quality audio and video performance.
6 x 40W 6.1-Channel A/V Receiver
Don’t let the AVR 140’s modest price fool you. Our most affordable A/V receiver is loaded with features. With
on-screen menus that include renameble inputs, component video switching, compatibility with The Bridge, and
our classic high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth amplifier topology, there is no better way to upgrade an old analog
system or add high-quality home theater performance when budget considerations are paramount.

Together for the first
time – your iPod
and your home
entertainment system –
thanks to The Bridge.
A single connection
provides complete
navigation and control
of an iPod with the
iPOD

remote control from
a The Bridge-Ready
Harman Kardon receiver,
and charges the battery
at the same time. Of
course, you can also
hear any track on the
iPod through your home
entertainment system.

THE BRIDGE
iPod Docking Station
iPod and Harman Kardon: two names synonymous with music playback, ease of control and elegant design. Now,
The Bridge literally links the two, allowing you to share the favorite tracks and playlists stored on your iPod with
anyone in listening range of a compatible Harman Kardon
AVR – even in a connected second room. Dock your
iPod in The Bridge, then sit back and operate it with the AVR’s remote control while on-screen and front-panel
menus guide your track selections. The Bridge also charges the iPod while you use it.

It’s time to Take Control™!
The TC 30 extends our
commitment to taking
integrated entertainment
to the next level by
making it easier than
ever to not only program

TC 30
Activity-Based Remote
There’s a good reason that the “TC” in “TC 30” stands for “Take Control.” This unique product does more than just
operate single components; it dramatically changes the way you configure and use a remote control. Setup is done
directly with our Web site, where plain language “wizards” recognize the brand and model of all your equipment and
automatically send the right codes back to the TC 30.
The TC 30 remote groups all the needed commands, including
“Watch TV,” “Listen to CD,” “Watch a DVD” and “Listen to The Bridge,” into unified activities. All you need to do is look at
the color LCD screen, select the icon that matches the activity, and the TC 30 does the rest. It’s easy, it’s fun and it
makes operating otherwise complex systems a breeze

As the company
that invented the
audio receiver,
Harman Kardon has
always defined a
receiver’s power by
more than just the
traditional benchmarks
of watts and dBs. Our
AVR
A/V Receivers
AVRs express power
as a total package of
features, functionality,
ease of use and elegant
industrial design. From
that perspective, the
AVR 635 and AVR 435
are perfectly powered.
16
AVR 635
AVR 435
7 x 75W 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver
The AVR 635 combines the sonic power of our high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth amplifier design with advanced
™
audio processing technology from Texas Instruments
to deliver unparalleled performance. Thanks to Harman Kardon’s
proprietary EzSet/EQ functionality, the AVR 635 not only automates speaker output and delay settings, it corrects for room
acoustics. The
AVR 635’s video technology is equally impressive, with video conversion so that all input sources may be
viewed via component video, and A/V Sync delay that reconnects the timing of sound and image. An RS-232 port makes
future software upgrades possible, and enables external control systems.
7 x 65W 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver
Perfect home theater made easy! Thanks to EzSet/EQ, setting up the AVR 435 is quick and painless. Plug in the compact
microphone
, press a few buttons, and your system is precisely and automatically calibrated with full-room correction. Once
you’re ready to listen, the latest digital surround modes and our own Logic 7 processing deliver flawless performance. With
high-current power to spare, and a host of advanced features such as A-BUS/
READY connectivity, the AVR 435 is home
theater perfection.

7.1-channel presentation. Digital bass management,
even for analog inputs from DVD-A and SACD players, combined
with our quadruple crossover system, creates a seamless, powerful soundfield, while a wide range of multiroom options,
including A-BUS/
