Harman Kardon HK695, User Manual

Using the speaker system: harman/kardon HK695 Audio System

In order to facilitate optimal system setup, a diagnostic system has been built in to the harman/
kardon HK695  Audio System. If you are having trouble getting sound out of your system, or 
are not confident that your setup is optimal, use these system diagnostics to configure your 
harman/kardon HK695 Audio system.

Disconnect all speaker cables from the sound card. To test the front speaker channel, plug the 
green connector into the diagnostic jack on the rear of the subwoofer. This will generate a test 
tone. This tone will alternate from the Subwoofer to the satellites and back again.

The diagnostic test can also be used to test the rear speaker channel input by plugging in the 
black connector into the diagnostic jack on the rear of the subwoofer.  (Test tone may sound 
different due to the surround characteristics of speaker system).

When you have finished the test, unplug the cable from the ‘DIAG’ jack and plug the audio 
cable back into the correct soundcard output jack. Review the user setup if necessary.

While the speaker system is in the diagnostic mode, the 

-/+

 controls will control the volume of 

the diagnostic tone.

If the test tone was heard from all speakers, your HK695 Audio System is working correctly. If 
not, see the troubleshooting section for detailed troubleshooting techniques.
