Introduction: Harman/Kardon HK-595 Speaker System

The Harman/Kardon HK-595 is the latest computer audio innovation from Harman/Kardon, a long time leader in the manufacture of high-end component and computer audio systems. Harman/Kardon’s years of experience in designing award-winning audio systems enables us to design a PC audio solution that provides playback of four channel audio, including a digital audio connection to enhance audio performance. We also provide a simple approach to controlling operating modes and a form factor that provides wide bandwidth and spectrally true audio without consuming excessive desk space.

VMAx, a Harman International audio image-processing algorithm is used to re-create a four speaker sound field from two speakers. The effect is a type of audio hologram. This approach simplifies the installation of the speaker system by eliminating the need for physical rear speakers while delivering playback of four independent audio channels. The Surround mode in the Harman/Kardon HK-595 utilizes this technology.

As described in the Using the speaker system section of this user's guide, the control speaker

contains a push button mode switch and a rotary control for adjusting the selected mode. Pushing the mode button changes the mode that will be adjusted by the rotary control. An LED will indicate which mode is selected.

The system includes two desktop speakers and a sub-woofer to be placed on the floor. Both speakers and the sub-woofer are magnetically shielded to provide the greatest protection against image distortion on a computer monitor.
