UPDATES

A single connection from The Bridge??? to a The Bridge-Ready Harman Kardon receiver provides audio playback, complete control and charging of most iPod??1 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!

Getting the best sound takes more than just power, it requires tailoring the system parameters to the unique characteristics of the listening room. With the press of a few buttons, our patented EzSet/EQ,??? EzSet+??? and EzSet??? systems do that for you automatically, with accuracy previously possible only with expensive professional gear.

Harman Kardon technology unleashes music power so that it can be heard almost anywhere in the house. Thanks to configurable amplifiers, A-BUS/READY ?? single-wire connectivity and standard Zone II remotes, it???s easier than ever to have the sound you want, where you want it.

Sometimes technology changes after you purchase a component. That???s why all Harman Kardon DVD players and HS systems, the DPR and select AVR receivers can be easily updated when needed, keeping your system current for years to come.

If A/V receivers are the heart of a home entertainment system, then Harman Kardon AVRs are both heart and mind. They take today???s vast array of

AVR

A/V Receivers

audio/video formats and sources, and make it easy for you to select a source, tailor it to the requirements of your listening room and then play it back without skipping a beat.
