Harman/Kardon Go+Play
High-Performance Portable Loudspeaker Dock for iPod

Harman/Kardon Go+PlayUnderstated, sublimely functional industrial design. Unsurpassed performance and ease of use. From its flat, protective iPod® cradle and smart RF remote to its arching stainless-steel handle, this is the portable loudspeaker dock that only Harman Kardon® could build. Go + Play™ delivers tight, thunderous bass from highexcursion low-frequency drivers. Just as important, the highs are distinct and crystal-clear. Go + Play is AC- or battery-operated, so it will go anywhere your iPod or other music player goes – and make your favorite music sound better when it arrives. And as a multimedia entertainment center, it even sends your iPod photos and video to a TV monitor. But however and wherever you use it, it’s the sound that sets Go + Play apart.

Compatibility
Go + Play incorporates the Apple® iPod Universal Dock adapter and is compatible with most docking versions of iPod, including nano and 5G versions. A stereo mini jack connection also allows you to enjoy high-quality audio from a variety of other devices such as MP3 and CD players, desktop computers (all platforms) and laptops.

Smart RF Remote
Go + Play includes a smart RF remote for two-way communication and superior signal reception. In Music mode, the remote lets you adjust volume, change tracks and fast forward/reverse through songs from anywhere in the room. In Navigation mode, it gives you full iPod functionality. Browse by song, artist or album and select playlists, slideshows and videos just as if you were holding your iPod in your hand.

Easy-to-Use Touch Controls
Go + Play includes touch controls for convenient tabletop use. One touch increases or decreases the volume; one
touch mutes or unmutes the system. And Go + Play remembers your previous settings when the system is powered
on.

Additional Features
OnePoint design The OnePoint iPod connectors provide the connection to your computer. Connect the standard
iPod cable to the back of Go + Play, and every time you dock your iPod, you will have a connection for synchronizing.
Evercharge topology Go + Play will charge your iPod without a computer connection, even when the system is
off.

Advanced Technology
Go + Play owes its clear, accurate sound and outstanding performance characteristics to proprietary technologies
developed specifically for the realities of multimedia sound.

Atlas ™ and Ridge transducers The dual Atlas woofers are capable of peak-to-peak travel of nearly an inch for
tight, accurate bass reproduction, while the dual Ridge high- and midrange transducers produce rich, full-spectrum
sound.

Digital Power and DSP Go + Play delivers with a powerfully tuned digital audio path. The clean and compact
digital amplification coupled with DSP (Digital Signal Processing) equalization efficiently provides the Go + Play
transducers with cool-running power.

Slipstream Port design Proprietary port architecture improves bass output while minimizing distortion.

AEMS (Advanced Energy Management System) Go + Play can operate for up to 16 continuous hours at nominal
listening levels with eight fresh D batteries (including NiMH and other rechargeable batteries). To extend battery life,
Go + Play automatically enters Sleep mode in the absence of an input signal. The system awakens at the previous
volume level with just a touch.

COE (Computer-Optimized Equalization) Proper equalization greatly improves stereo imaging. The Go + Play system is
computer-optimized for an all-encompassing, 360-degree soundstage.

OCT (Optimized Compression Topology) A proprietary compression technology ensures clean, accurate sound at high
output levels.
