Harmon Kardon Citation 16

pkpraider · 26th January 2004, 02:48 PM

This past week, my Uncle gave me his Harmon Kardon Citation 16 Amp and his Citation 17 pre amp. He saved ALL original documents for the sale and all schematics.
What can I do with this equipment? Capabilities? And what is the value? It is in unbelivable condition. Any info would be great!
Thanks

The Citation 16 was a decent amp for its day. Not Mark Levinson quality but it was enver meant to be. I used several in discos and night clubs. Still a decent mid-power amplifier. Still OK for a home system of reasonable quality or as a backup amplifier in a small club or for a bar band. If bass reproduction seems a but weak, it may need new main filter capacitors.
