Harman Kardon is a name well known among home audio fanatics. Their home theater amps are very sleek and have a refined and elegant style. So when I stumbled on this post over at South African car audio blog Resonance Factor, my jaw just about dropped onto my desk! Harman is offering a full line of car audio amplifiers for European and other non-US countries, and Razeen snapped some pretty good shots of the amps and has full details over at the Factor. The initial launch will include one 2-channel and two 4-channel Class A/B amps, and one Class-D sub amp. The inclusion of a Class-D amp is pretty common for car audio, but a different approach for Harman as their home audio line is all Class A/B. Regardless, these amps are hot and I wish there was some way to convince Harman to bring them stateside. However, SoundDomain did get the scoop that there are some good things on the way from one of Harman's other companies, but we aren't allowed to disclose details just yet. You'll just have to stay tuned; we'll have an announcement in the next few months!
