To obtain maximum enjoyment from your new speakers, we urge you to take a few minutes to read through this manual. This will ensure that connections to your receiver or amplifier are made properly. In addition, a few minutes spent understanding the setup options will enable you to take advantage of all the power and refinement the HKS 6 is able to deliver.

The HKS 6 is a pair of 2-way satellite speakers for use in a home theater system. The HKS 6 speakers are identical to the satellites in the Harman Kardon HKTS 15 system, and are designed to be used with the HKTS 15 in a complete 7.1-channel home theater. Color-coded speaker cables are included to facilitate installing the speakers in the surround back left and right positions.

Harman Kardon invented the high-fidelity receiver more than 50 years ago. The HKS 6 is a perfect complement to a Harman Kardon receiver or any home theater system.
