Harman Kardon CITATION 7.1 User manual

7.1 Multichannel Power
Amplifier
Features
Specifications
User-Configurable Outputs
The Citation¨ 7.1 may be used
as a four, three or two-channel
amplifier, with audiophile
quality in all configurations.
This flexibility permits you to
configure power levels to meet
specific system requirements
upon initial installation and in
later system modifications.
High Current Design
Delivers full power to speakers
even when matched with
complex impedance loads from
various speaker configurations.
Low Negative Feedback
Improved sonic quality with
almost total freedom from TIM
(transient intermodulation
distortion), THD (total
harmonic distortion) and IMD
(intermodulation distortion).
Quad Power Supply
Four (4) separate power
supplies, one for each output
channel, eliminate crosstalk
among channels and provide
the highest possible
performance in bridged modes.
Power-up Sequencing
When controlled by the remote
turn-on system in the 5.0 AV
Controller, 7.1 Multi-channel
Power Amplifiers in multiple
amplifier systems turn on
sequentially, each at a slightly
different time, reducing power
surges in a home's electrical
system.
Ultrawide Bandwidth Design
Delivers all the subtleties of the
source material, even inaudible
harmonics that contribute to
sonic performance. A Citation
design and engineering
hallmark.
Oversize Heat Sinks
Fan-free convection cooling
assures high system reliability
and quiet operation.
THX¨ Certified
The Citation 7.1 Multichannel
Power Amplifier meets or
exceeds THX TM standards for
sonic performance and is
compatible with other THX
certified components.
