User manual HARMAN KARDON HK740

[. . . ] Sidney Harman has always believed technology should serve users, not intimidate them. The AVR 354 is a perfect case in point. 10 AVR 254 7 x 50W 7. 1-Channel A/V Receiver with HDMI 1. 3a Repeater, Audio/Video Processing and Upscaling to 1080p The AVR 254 is the most affordable Harman Kardon receiver to feature both Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master AudioTM decoding on the audio side, and Faroudja DCDi Cinema video processing to 1080p on the video side. But there's plenty more to recommend the AVR 254, including three HDMI inputs, connections for external amplifiers, EzSet/EQ technology to fine-tune your system to the acoustics of your room, and an RS-232 port for future firmware upgrades. As do all Harman Kardon A/V receivers, the AVR 254 features a high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth design for maximum fidelity. AVR 154 5 x 30W 5. 1-Channel A/V Receiver with HDMI Switching The Harman Kardon AVR 154 is all about getting connected. [. . . ] This is no longer just a dream ­ behold the Harman Kardon Digital Media Center. As awarded by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design. In the Permanent Design Collection of The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design. 22 DMC 1000 Four-Stream Digital Media Center with Progressive-Scan DVD-Video Playback and 250GB Internal Hard Drive Smaller, but vastly smarter and better looking than your average CD storage rack, the DMC 1000 will digitize, catalog and store more than 60, 000 songs as you play them, allowing you to banish your CDs ­ and CD storage racks ­ to the attic. It will also let you send up to four different audio selections to other rooms of your house at once. With touch-sensitive front-panel controls (the ultimate no-button design), a concealed front-panel USB jack and hidden memory card slots, the DMC 1000 will even let you transfer your music for use in portable players, card-equipped cars and cell phones. Enjoy playback, control and charging with The Bridge II docking station for iPod (sold separately and very much worth it). 23 24 MULTIROOM PRODUCTS One-room systems are only ideal for one-room apartments. All Harman Kardon 7. 1-channel AVR receivers are built with multiroom applications in mind. All include assignable rear-channel amplifiers, all offer a second-zone control system, and the AVR 354 includes a second-zone remote control. Which means Harman Kardon multiroom systems are easy to set up and use. Your Harman Kardon entertainment system will be there for you. 25 / MULTIROOM PRODUCTS ABH 4000 Four-Zone/Eight-Room A-BUS® Expansion Hub Different music in different rooms. With an ABH 4000 expansion hub and up to four different input sources (including your Harman Kardon AVR), you can easily divide your house into four separate entertainment zones, where individual musical tastes may prevail. Link in an A-BUS ®-equipped Harman Kardon product and make its tuner and The Bridge II docking station for iPod accessible from throughout the realm. 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. Child's play. 32 HKS 9 Surround Speakers 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 system to 7. 1 channels. The additional speakers add a surround back channel for the ultimate in cinema-like sound. HKS 6 Surround Speakers 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 system, by itself, 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. Its full-browse music player will provide the soundtrack to get you where you need to go. * Subscription required (first 90 days free). 37 / CONTROL FOR iPod DRIVE + PLAYTM 2 Your car is a great place to listen to music.
