Harman Kardon 75+ - Introduction and Policy; Introduction to the Model 75+; Warranty and Service Information

INTRODUCTION
You are now the owner of an instrument unique in concept and design.
The Harman/Kardon Model 75+ multichannel receiver encompasses the best
of all forms of music reproduction. It may be installed as a stereophonic re-
ceiver capable of delivering clean, articulate sound at moderate power levels,
or as a quadriphonic receiver that can fill your listening room with spacious,
three dimensional sound.
When you listen to your new Harman/Kardon multichannel receiver you
will instantly recognize that something truly phenomenal is taking place. The
sound, which normally emerges from the speaker boxes, will lose its boundaries
and will emanate from all over the room recreating the scope, depth and
breadth of the concert hail. The walls of your listening room will seem to dis-
appear and you will find yourself surrounded by a sound field that has the
same ambience and spaciousness which marks a live performance. Stereo-
phonic balance and perspective will be retained, but now there will be the
addition of depth which will project you into the middle of the hall. Applause,
for example, will emerge from the front sides and rear. And during playback
of
a
live
concert
don't
be
too
startled
if
you
hear
someone
coughing
or
rustling
his
program
from
behind
you.
The
4-Channel
medium
is
even
more
dramatic
for
contemporary
music,
espe-
cially
if
the
music
was
originally
written
for
four
channel
reproduction.
Sounds
bounce
back
and
forth
from
the
corners
of
the
room
involving
you
completely
with
the
performance.
It’s
a
new
and
exhilarating
kind
of
sound
that
will
make
listening
to
music
a
new
experience.
The Model 75+ bears the heritage of the Harman/Kardon trademark—
ultrawideband frequency response, virtually unmeasurable distortion and all of
the required conveniences so essential for the ultimate enjoyment of high
fidelity reproduction.
We urge you to read this manual carefully prior to installing and operat-
ing your new receiver. The Model 75+ is not a complicated instrument. How-
ever, there are certain aspects of its operation which should be understood
clearly before you install and operate it.
Happy listening!
