A showroom condition HK490i Receiver from 1983,just professionally serviced for long life reliability.
Mid level performer from Harman/Kardon's lineup 1983,above the hk330i,hk380i,and below the hk590i and 690i.Made in Japan 1983,with a US price tag of $450,which was over $600 Canadian.
From Harmon/Kardon:
The dynamic behavior of the hk 490i,with it's High Instantaneous Current Capability(HCC) of 18 amps,approaches the ideal in that the transient power nearly doubles into 4 ohms and increases dramatically into 2 ohms.(
Power output increses to 75 watts per channel at 4 ohms at 100 watts per channel at 2 ohms.-Almost unheard of from consumer mid-fi level stereo products!)
This means the hk 490i gives you louder,cleaner sound than any other 30 watt receiver.
Tuner section is very good,locks into stations without an antenna,and the phono section is fantastic sounding as well.
*Classic 80's Signature Champagne Metallic finish with signature Harman Kardon sound and reliability.
