Harman Kardon HK750 Owners Manual - Page 4

Owner's manual hk750 Your investment in a component high fidelity system indicates you have a more than average interest in music. The fact that your investment includes a Harman Kardon Ultrawideband Stereo Integrated Amplifier shows us your appreciation of uncompromised reproduction of the music you enjoy. Throughout the design and manufacture of this unit, we made every effort to assure it will meet all of your expectations. To ensure continuing high performance, read this manual carefully before you connect and operate your hk750. Warning To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Connections For the moment, leave the POWER LINE CORD (35) of the hk750 unconnected. Put the unit on the shelf or table where it will be installed. Leave enough working space so you can make all connections easily. The hk750 requires adequate ventilation. It should not be installed on a cushion or rug, and a minimum of two inches (5cm) clearance should be provided above and behind. (However, hk700 series may be stacked.) Like most stereo equipment, your hk750 is fitted with pin type RCA connectors to accept standard pin type RCA patch cords. If these are not compatible with your other equipment, consult your audio dealer for patch cords with proper adaptors. Connecting turntables to the hk750 Turntables are supplied with their own signal cables. Consult the owner's manual and determine which cable is for the left channel and which is for the right channel. Insert the left channel cable into the left PHONO 1 INPUT connector (24) on your hk750. Insert the right channel cable into the right PHONO 1 INPUT connector (24). Push the plugs in all the way so they are firmly seated, making good electrical contact. If your turntable has a separate ground wire, connect it to the knurled thumbscrew on the integrated amplifier marked GND (23). A second turntable may be connected similarly using the PHONO 2 input connectors (25). 4
