You've been putting up with compromises all these years, but now you're ready for the ultimate. You deserve Citation.
You've spent a long time developing your listening sense.
To the point where what's super for most people, for you is just compromise.
You're ready for the ultimate.
Which we call Citation.
The Citations you see here are all brand new.
Designed to new understandings.
New understandings about transient intermodulation distortion (TIM). About cross over distortion. About FM signal processing and phono preamp design.
The new Citations answer these concerns with features like fast slew rate, low-level negative feedback, discrete components in place of integrated circuits, extended Class A operation, an FM external processor loop, and phono equalization to within +/- 0.25dB of the RIAA curve.
In addition, they all feature the ultra wideband design pioneered by our first state-of-the-art Citations in 1959. Ultra wideband design extends flat frequency response well beyond the conventional20-20,000Hz range. To insure phase linearity and outstanding transient response.
The benefit is an incredibly open, accurate sound. The spacious stereo imaging and the far greater musical detail you've been longing to hear.
Citation components are in use through out the world. By professionals in their reference systems, by rock bancs on stage, and by symphony orchestras in their listening facilities.
And their reliability is legend.
The new Harman Kardon Citations.
As close to the ideal in sound reproduction as any components have ever come.
Some even say closer.
