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.
