Carsten Olesen, Product Manager at Harman Kardon, explains: "The demand for stereo receivers remains high, both for the living room and for other rooms in the home, and that is precisely why Harman Kardon has released the HK 3480 and the HK 3380. HiFi receivers that combine superior sound quality with flexibility in operation and application, such as video switching functions and the distinguished Harman Kardon design of audio/video components." The HK 3480 and HK 3380 deliver true, pure audio performance and are equipped with the famous Harman Kardon high-current, ultra-wideband amplifier stages with ample power of 2 x 120 watts and 2 x 80 watts respectively (in both cases into 8 ohms, 20 Hz – 20 kHz, THV). The HK 3480 and HK 3380 feature a large number of attractive and practical functions, such as a subwoofer output and remote speaker A/B switching, in addition to numerous inputs and outputs for a wide variety of program sources, including a turntable.
