Harman Kardon HK3500 - Page 3

Thank you for choosing a Harman Kardon
receiver.
And congratulations. Your new unit is an
exceptionally well-engineered product that
will give you years of superb performance.
Among its special features are:
@ High Instantaneous
Current Capability
The amplifier in the HK3500 reacts rapidly
to musical transients, providing the
instantaneous current necessary to
precisely drive and control nearly any
loudspeaker system.
@ Ultrawide Bandwidth
The circuitry is designed to deliver
extended frequency response, while
keeping phase shift well outside the audible
spectrum. The result is stereo imaging and
clarity with remarkably accurate spatial
positioning of vocals and musical
instruments.
B Low Negative Feedback
Conventional designs rely heavily on
negative feedback to reduce Total
Harmonic Distortion. This results, however,
in excessive Transient Intermodulation
Distortion, audible in the harsh, grating
quality of the sound. Harman Kardon
keeps negative feedback low for smoother,
clearer reproduction of complex musical
sounds, such as those of stringed
instruments.
@ Discrete Circuitry
For maximum design flexibility and highest
possible performance, the circuitry has
been designed using discrete electronic
components, not off-the-shelf integrated
Circuits.

@ Sophisticated Electronic
Protection Circuitry
Harman Kardon's unique protection circuitry
guards the amplifier from short-circuited or
damaged speakers and wires, without
impairing sound quality by the use of
current limiting or output relays.
@ Automatic Tuner Switching
When not in use, the tuner circuitry is
automatically turned off, eliminating any
electronic interference and assuring optimal
performance of amplifier circuitry.
