MADE TO ORDER
Life is too short. Too short for compromises, shortcuts and mediocrit y.
That’s why Harman Kardon products stand for perfec tion when it
comes to satisfying people’s passion for exceptional entertainment
experiences. It started more than 50 years ago when we created the
world’s rst stereo receiver (Festival TA230) – and has continued
ever since with revolutionary inventions such as the world’s rst high
instantaneous current amplier (Citation XX).
Every Harman Kardon creation is loaded with substance. From superb
ultrawide-bandwidth two-channel systems to muscular upgradeable
7.1-channel systems, the Harman Kardon focus is on delivering captivating,
soul-stirring performance through advanced – often proprietary – digital
technologies. And whereas other companies may boast of having products
with a laundry list of features, the Harman Kardon mission has always
been about creating emotionally charged, breathtaking experiences.
Quality over quantity, in other words. Always.
