3 INTRODUCTION Introduction Congratulations! As the owner of a PA 4000 Power Amplifier, you have at your command a unique product. The PA 4000 has been carefully designed to deliver the best possible sonic performance, along with unique features that make it as much at home in a multiroom audio system as it is in providing power to the additional surround channels required for the latest digital audio formats. The PA 4000 is alone among audio power amplifiers in being designed to accommodate the long speaker runs required for multiroom applications without sacrificing the ultrawide- bandwidth circuitry and high-current capability technologies that are key to Harman KardonÕs long-standing tradition of audio amplifier excel- lence. As an added audiophile touch, five-way speaker terminals ensure a secure connection to large-gauge speaker wire, and individual output level trim controls enable output bal- ance to be set precisely. Along with power and performance, the PA 4000 provides the flexibility for a variety of applications. Depending on your needs and sys- tem requirements: the PA 4000 may be config- ured to serve as a two-channel, high-power amplifier for the rear surround channels in the new 6.1 or 7.1 digital audio systems; it may be used to power two separate remote zones or four separate remote rooms; or Ð for the ulti- mate in flexibility Ð it can even provide power to a multiroom zone and rear surround chan- nels at the same time! To allow the widest range of system options, the PA 4000 includes both Music Sense circuitry, which automatically turns the amplifier on when an audio signal is present, and a low-voltage trigger for compati- bility with multiroom controllers.In order to fully enjoy the performance of your amplifier, please take a few minutes to read this ownerÕs manual. It contains important informa- tion that will help you to make certain that the amplifier is properly configured for operation with the rest of the equipment in your system. If you have any questions about this product, its installation or its operation, please contact your retailer or custom installer. They are your best source of product information. Welcome to the Harman Kardon family. We wish you many years of listening pleasure!
