Harman Kardon HK206 PC speakers

Volume control is integrated with ON/OFF switch. I'm not sure if this switch is working as intended here as is it works really weird.

According to label speakers are manufactured by Samsung, although there is Dell mark on the PCB
From wikipedia: Harman Kardon (styled as harman / kardon) is a division of Harman International Industries, subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, and manufactures home and car audio equipment. It was founded in 1953 by Sidney Harman and Bernard Kardon.
HII owns also Becker, JBL, Crown, dbx, DigiTech, Martin, AKG, Lexicon, Infinity, Mark Levinson, Revel, Arcam, BSS Audio - this is really small world.


Samsung 08G11ARH 4Ohm 3W speakers

TDA1517P power amplifier + LM324


"DELL 2.0" mark on the PCB + 2002.01.22
Speakers are receiving good reviews and I can confirm that they sound good despite not so impressive amplifier.

  1. Interestingly, these speakers sound fantastic for being small, single-driver enclosures. Obviously, they cannot, magically output very low frequencies from their meager drivers, but the amount of volume these can output without distorting or clipping is fantastic!
