Amazon.com Product Description
The HK 3470 is a full-featured stereo receiver with five inputs and an FM stereo/FM mono/AM tuner with capabilities that provide for the utmost flexibility. Even a high-quality phono input is included so that you can continue to enjoy your existing record collection as well as the latest CD recordings.

The HK 3470 is the world's first stereo receiver to offer VMAx. VMAx is a proprietary signal-processing technique that creates an open, spacious sound field when only two loudspeakers are available. VMAx circuitry is able to decode the ambience of a concert hall or theater from a stereo recording.

At the center of the HK 3470's performance is a Harman Kardon-designed, high-current, ultrawide-bandwidth amplifier with an output of 100 watts per channel. Separate speaker 1 and speaker 2 outputs give you the option of high-quality sound in two different locations. For added depth and flexibility, Harman Kardon has added pre-out/main-in jacks for use with external amplifiers, equalizers, and signal processors. A subwoofer output and tape monitor loop are also included.

The receiver itself features a digital AM/FM tuner with 30 station presets and direct-access tuning. Infrared remote extension jacks let the receiver be controlled by remote, even if the infrared sensor is blocked due to cabinet doors or other obstructions, through the use of an external sensor. These convenient features, combined with an included full-function, programmable remote control, make the HK 3470 one of the most user-friendly receivers Harman Kardon has ever built.

Harman Kardon offers a two-year warranty on parts and labor for the HK 3470.
