Harman-Kardon TC304 Automobile Accessories User Manual


 
feedback, the TC Series amplifiers use
completely discrete (separate) electronic
components for greatly improved
linearity and less distortion.
Ultrawidebandwidth combined with low
negative feedback and fully discrete
curcuitry maintains the correct harmonic
and phase relationships in your music,
providing superior imaging and definition.
Designed and manufac-
tured in the
U.S.A.
The TC Series amplifiers were designed
with the aid of CADICAM computer
systems
at
Harman Kardon's state-of-the-art
industrial complex. The result is rugged,
high-performance amplifiers employing
only the highest-quality parts and materials,
including double-sided fiberglass-epoxy
printed circuit boards and high-current
capacity bipolar transistors.

Features
Transverse tunnel fan
cooling
Major heat-producing components in the
amplifier are mounted directly to the center
heat sink, localizing the area to be cooled.
Harman Kardon's exclusive transverse
tunnel cooled design employs a fan to
eliminate heat directly from the heat sink,
enabling the amplifier to remain cool to the
touch and permitting installation in re-
stricted spaces, such as under car seats.
This exclusive design not only protects the
preamplifier and power supply components
from high temperatures, but also keeps dust
and dirt from contaminating the inside of
the amplifier, further ensuring reliable op-
eration.
Two-stage music-linked
cooling fan speed
The music link whisper fan operates
inaudibly until the music volume rises, then
goes to a higher speed for more efficient
cooling without interference with your
listening pleasure. The fan returns to its
inaudible state between musical passages.
Reversible fan
For side-by-side multi-amp installations, the
fan in each TC Series amplifier can be
reversed, providing control over the
direction of the cooling air flow. This
enables you to prevent the warm air from
one amp from being vented into the tunnel
of the next amp.
