The Harman Kardon HK6500 offers connection options for 7 devices incl. 2 x Phono. In addition, e.g. an equalizer or sound processor are ground in via the External Processor interface.
Two pairs of speakers can be controlled separately or simultaneously, the RMS output power is 2 x 70 watts into 8 ohms. The dynamic output power is correspondingly higher, but with 2 x70 watts of RMS power, you can easily address even power-hungry speakers. Features include a loudness button, tape monitor and a stereo / mono button and a subsonic filter. The device is particularly interesting for turntables due to its two phono connections for MC / MM.
Investigations have shown that when playing dynamic music signals, the short-term impedances of almost all speakers drop to less than a third of the rated values. These low short-term impedances usually require 3 to 6 times more current than one of 8 ohms. Therefore, there is a reduced dynamic range and increasing distortion when the amplifier can not deliver these higher currents. For this reason, the HK6100 and HK6200 models are designed to deliver 22 or 30 amps of immediate current.
Very high frequency response:
The frequency response of this device is exceptionally large and independent of counter-knocking. This improves the transient accuracy and phase linearity.
Low negative feedback:
This device has been designed to have low distortion and high frequency response with low negative feedback. This significantly improves the dynamic range.
Discrete components:
In order to achieve the above-mentioned goals, completely discrete electronic circuits have been used. None of the available integrated circuits could deliver this high level of performance
Advanced electronic circuit circuits:
Harman Kardon engineers have developed a protection system that allows high current to be applied to the speakers while protecting the amplifier from short circuits or damage to speakers and cables. However, this protection system in no way limits the output voltage of the amplifier or the output power in music reproduction, and therefore does not adversely affect the sound quality.
History of this amplifier:
This harman is already one of the classics today. Like all “harmaners” from that time, it is characterized by a clean and dry bass foundation. Its power supply capability (HCC) is +/- 40A. The power of 2 x 70 watts into 8 ohms is absolutely sufficient to even critical speakers such. Dyn.audio, J.B.L or B & W. Even at low volumes he still plays musically and it’s just fun to listen to relaxed music over a longer period of time. Just typical harman!
According to the harman tradition, the entire circuit structure was realized completely without integrated circuits (ICs) for sonic reasons.
For the friends Vinyl, the HK6500 has a phono section for MM and MC on its own board with its own power supply.
