  GreenEdge enables you to enjoy the sound of efficiency. Harman Kardon GreenEdge systems combine a new, environmentally friendly design with dramatic energy savings – all without compromising the premium performance for which Harman Kardon products are known. The systems use unique amplifier and speaker technologies, delivering substantial increases in component and system efficiency levels. GreenEdge amplifiers outperform traditional amplifier efficiency by up to 55 percent - representing a net efficiency of more than 90 percent in many cases. At the same time, acoustic transparency and dynamic response have been significantly improved in comparison with conventional systems. Using innovative, lightweight materials, such as Aramid fibre, and an array of highly efficient design solutions also ensures optimised, low-weight products.

  The high-performance Class-D amplifiers feature special power packs that fulfil every possible desire for fun and detail-rich sound with an amazingly high sound pressure level (SPL). The module, weighing only 1.3 kilograms, delivers deep bass sounds powerfully and precisely to the speakers. Thanks to the Class-D technology, the amplifier is more efficient than an analogue amplifier and, as a result, only a small amount of heat is generated and additional cooling is not required. In turn, this gives compact dimensions of only 19.2 × 11.6 × 5.2 centimetres and allows space-saving installation under the driver's seat or at the rear. The compact and light Class-D amplifier works extremely economically and efficiently.
