Harman Kardon has been synonymous with music reproduction excellence for decades. Ever since 1954, when Harman Kardon developed the world’s first true high-fidelity receiver (the Festival D1000), and then in 1958 when Harman Kardon introduced the world’s first stereo receiver (the Festival TA230), people have associated the words Harman Kardon with high quality components. As the decades ensured, the company improved on its “firsts” by improving its line of music reproduction components. Their efforts leave us today with some of the best sounding stereo components available. From Harman Kardon receiver to computer speakers to stereo speakers to speakers that work with your iPod, Harmon Karmon has a wide range of offerings for consumers to choose from.
One of the most recent and best systems out there today is the Harman Kardon HKTS-18 5.1 Channel Speaker System. With 200 watts of power, 8 ohm impedance and 10 woofer bass reflex exposure, this feature packed system is THE complete channel speaker system.
Very few channel speaker systems are as versatile as this system. The Harman Kardon speakers have superior sound and one of the best and solid bass’ around. The sound balance has been improved so that the dispersion, frequency response and dynamic range are matched perfectly so that each of the speakers mix well with each other.
One of the more “user friendly” features of this 5.1 channel speaker system is the power indicator. With this system, the power indicator is multi-colored to show the different states the speaker system is in. If it is blue it means the system is on while if it is yellow, it means the system is powered on but the signal strength is low.
Another breakthrough in music reproduction happened in 2000 when Harman Kardon introduced the Harman Kardon iSub 2000 Subwoofer and Soundsticks. These have been recently improved when the Harman Kardon Soundsticks ii was released.
The Harman Kardon Soundsticks ii system is a unique, three-piece speaker system that produces high-quality stereo sound for Music, MP3’s, movies and gaming experiences.
The Harmon Kardon soundsticks ii is a 2.1 channel design that has a transparent casing which reveals 10 watt speakers that are arranged in each “stick”. The system also includes a 20 watt subwoofer.
While the tweeters are extremely clear and crisp, the inclusion of the subwoofer is its strongest feature. With the subwoofer that is powerful, the music playback is incredible for games but even more impressive when used while watching movies or listening to your favorite music. It could even be hooked up to your computer for an improved gaming experience.
Harman Kardon continues to roll out impressive speakers and receivers year after year. With no slowdown in sight all we audiophiles can do is sit back and enjoy the clear sounds coming from our Harman Kardon speakers.
