Harman Kardon AVR 630 Product Information - Page 3

"Technology can get you most of the way to good sound...but that last critical leap to state-of-the-art reality comes only from endless hours of critical listening - and a deep, almost fanatical love of all types of music and every sort of movie." "Ever since I helped found Harman Kardon, we've been fanatical about maintaining a balance between pure engineering and what audio engineering's true result should be - a more realistic entertainment experience. Each step forward - and I'm proud to say that Harman Kardon has led the industry in technological advances - has been measured with a simple question: 'Does it take us closer to the musical truth?'" "We're driven by a passion for music and cinema." "You don't get the answer to that question merely with laboratory tests and measurement devices. Yes, the best test device is the human ear. But Harman Kardon relies just as much on the human heart and soul. Only when music and cinema become passions in themselves can our engineers create technology that is audibly better than our competition's." "When you experience firsthand the electronics and speakers described in this brochure I am confident you will agree that owning a Harman Kardon product sets you apart from the crowd. It is a validation of your own desire to command the 'best seat in the house' no matter what kind of music or cinema you enjoy." - Dr. Sidney Harman, founder 5
