High Current Capability

Ultrawide bandwidth

Phono input

A/B speaker selection

Heavy-duty binding posts Superlative two-channel music reproduction is the toughest test of an audio component, and the new Harman Kardon® HK 980 delivers effortlessly. Combining an elegant new look with time-proven engineering, the HK 980’s high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth design improves transient accuracy and phase linearity while delivering power that is more than a match for even the most demanding loudspeaker loads. The result is lively, dynamic sound that’s a true representation of the original performance.

Key Specifications

With signal-to-noise specs mirroring those of the mixing consoles on which the original

recordings were made, and a 32-bit DSP for the highest possible jitter rejection, the

HD 980 delivers musical purity without artifacts or veils. You’ll hear nothing (at least

not from the HD 980) to distract you from your favorite music.

Key Specifications

Radio Data System (RDS)

The first (more than 50 years ago) Harman Kardon product was a tuner, and we’ve been improving them ever since. The TU 980 combines the distortion-free, CD-like sound of Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) with information-rich RDS FM, and features a bright, legible

two-line display. You can control it with its own remote, or with the remote from most Harman Kardon amplifiers. Either way, you’ll enjoy the drift-free reception Harman Kardon tuners are famous for.

Acoustic Energy Aelite One

Introducing the AELITE Series of loudspeakers. A New mid-fi collection of speakers, using modern design techniques in drive unit technology and cabinet enclosure construction.

Following with AE tradition, lightweight high-efficiency alloy cones housed in die-cast aluminium chassis are used for the mid/ bass driver units, providing a fast, tight bass response with optimum detail and clarity.

The AELITE One is a compact 2-way bookshelf loudspeaker ideally suited to the rear-channel system setup. However, these miniature monitors are equally capable of exceptional performance as hi-fi music speakers when used on stands or rigid shelves within small/ medium sized rooms. Their curved cabinet design also allows convenient corner room placement.

Specifications

HF Unit: 25mm neodymium tweeter with high dispersion diaphragm. Ferrofluid cooled and damped. Magnetically shielded. Exclusively Profiled.

LF Unit: 110mm mid/bass driver with 32mm long throw voice coil, die cast chassis, high power, magnet system and lightweight alloy cone. Magnetically shielded.

Power Handling: 100 watt max

Overall Frequency Response: 40Hz – 23kHz

Sensitivity: 89dB

Impedance: 8 ohms

Cabinet: Real wood veneered. 15mm MDF wrap Full circumferential brace. High power, back firing ,low turbulence bass-reflex port. 30mm front baffle.

Terminals: Gold-plated 4-way binding posts
