General view of harman/kardon ElegantThe box contentsAll the components are packed into a colorful package which is not verybig. They are depicted on the box’s sides. The box contains: subwoofer; two satellites; user guide. The User Guide is written in 5 languages and covers a list of technicalcharacteristics and illustrated instructions for assembling the system. SatellitesThe name Elegant matches the design of the satellites in every aspect.Thanks to the thin stem and original support the satellites look especiallyexquisite. They bend a little backward following a tilted LCD panel ora notebook. The design is the main peculiarity of this model.
Satellite of the harman/kardon ElegantThe satellites use two identical loudspeakers. The high-frequency dynamicloudspeaker used in the satellites is of the Odyssey type. The cone madeof aluminum foil is 3 cm in diameter. The flexible corrugation is madeof foamed polymer. We could see such speakers in the JBL Creature, whichhowever has more advanced loudspeakers – Odyssey plus. The sound noticeablydiffers; it depends on how rigid the flexible corrugation is. The Odysseyloudspeakers of the harman/kardon Elegant have a more rigid corrugation. The satellites are plastic. Their supports are made of metallic alloy.They have a rubber pad underneath which hold them steadily on lacqueredsurfaces. The satellites measure 9 x 22 x 8 cm. The cable connecting themwith the subwoofer is 3m long. Above one of the satellites is general volume control. The buttons looklike rubber pads. Both satellites also have a power indicator. The secondsatellite has two decorative rubber pads for symmetry.SubwooferThe subwoofer looks original though its design does not match that of thesatellites. However, some may like it.
Subwoofer of harman/kardon ElegantThe subwoofer is made of plastic. It has the phase-inverter acoustic scheme.Its hole faces downwards. The LF loudspeaker’s cone is paper; its diametermakes 13 cm. The flexible corrugation is made of foamed polymer. The submeasures 22 x 26 x 18 cm. It stands on 4 1.5cm legs which have rubber padsunderneath.
Tone and surround sound controlsThe sub has three controls and a power LED above. The Bass and Treble controlsadjust low and high frequencies, and the Surround control adds a reverbeffect. The sound quality doesn’t suffer much, though you’d better listento music without this effect.
Commutation panelThe commutation panel is located on the back and contains the followingelements:power switch; satellites connectors; diagnostics connector. As you can see, the line-in is replaced with a 3m cable with two mini-jackson the end. One of them has a rubber cap. When one of the connectors isinserted into the DIAG, a sinusoid signal of 40 Hz to 400 Hz is appliedseparately to the loft or right channel. The manufacturer thus rescuesservice centers from users’ silly questions on operability of the speakers.Comes from a Smoke and pet free home
