Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Harman Kardon
®
HKTS 35 speaker system, with which
you’re about to begin many years of listening enjoyment. The HKTS 35 has been custom
designed to provide all the excitement and power of the cinema experience in your own
living room.
While sophisticated electronics and state-of-the-art speaker components are hard at
work within the HKTS 35, hookup and operation are easy, thanks to simple controls and
color-keyed cables and connections.
To obtain maximum enjoyment from your new home theater speaker system, we urge you
to take a few minutes to read through this manual. It will help ensure that the connections
you make to your receiver (or preamp/processor), amplifier and other devices are correct.
In addition, a few minutes spent learning the functions of the various controls will enable
you to take advantage of all the power and refinement the HKTS 35 is able to deliver.
If you have any questions about this product, its installation or its operation, please
contact your dealer. He or she is your best local source of information.
Description and Features
The HKTS 35 is a complete six-piece home theater speaker system that includes:
• A 200-watt wireless powered subwoofer with an 8-inch (200mm) low-frequency
transducer
• Four identical, two-way, video-shielded, dual midrange satellite speakers for the front
left and right, and surround left and right speaker positions
• A dedicated, voice-matched, video-shielded, dual midrange center speaker
• Removable bases for the satellite speakers and wall-mount brackets for the satellite
and center speakers
• All of the cables you need to connect all of the speakers to your receiver or preamp/
processor and amplifier
The speaker cables all use a color-coding system to conform to the Consumer Electronics
Association (CEA
®
) standard. This color-coding system minimizes confusion when
connecting the speakers, especially when you are connecting them to a Harman Kardon
receiver.
We have equipped the HKTS 220SUB wireless subwoofer and transmitter with Wireless
Code switches that allow the subwoofer to avoid interference from other wireless devices
while it’s operating wirelessly. Other conveniences include a level control, a phase switch
for fine-tuning bass response to suit your listening environment and taste, and an
efficient switching system that senses the presence of an audio signal and automatically
switches the subwoofer from standby mode to on.
We have included wall-mount brackets for the satellite and center speakers and shelf
stands for the satellite speakers. Optional HKFS 3 floor stands are available separately
from your Harman Kardon dealer.
Harman Kardon engineers invented the high-fidelity receiver over fifty years ago. With
state-of-the-art features and time honored circuit designs, the HKTS 35 is a perfect
complement to a Harman Kardon receiver or any home theater system.
