Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the harman kardon HKTS 60BQ speaker system, with which
you're about to begin many years of listening enjoyment. The HKTS 60BQ 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 60BQ, hookup and operation are simple. Color-keyed cables and
connections, and simple controls make the HKTS 60BQ easy to use.

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 60BQ is able
to deliver.
If you have any questions about this product, its installation or its operation, please
contact your dealer. They are your best local source of information.
Description and Features
The HKTS 60BQ is a complete six-piece home theater speaker system that includes:
•
A 200-watt powered subwoofer with an 8-inch (200mm) low-frequency transducer
•
Four identical two-way video-shielded dual-driver satellite speakers for the left and
right front, and left and right rear (surround) speaker positions
•
A dedicated, voice-matched, video-shielded, dual-driver center speaker
•
Removable bases and wall-mount brackets for the satellite speakers and a wall-
mount bracket for the center speaker
•
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 the HKTS 60BQ system is used with a harman
kardon receiver.
We have equipped the HKTS 210SUB subwoofer with a special input (labeled lFe) that
simplifies connection to receivers and preamp/processors with dedicated subwoofer
outputs that carry low-frequency signals. 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 centre speakers and shelf
stands for the satellite speakers. Optional HTFS 3 floor stands are available separately
from your harman kardon dealer.
harman kardon invented the high-fidelity receiver fifty years ago. With state-of-the-art
features and time-honored circuit designs, the HKTS 60BQ is a perfect complement to a
harman kardon receiver, or any home theater system.
