The Citation line, redefined:
It’s no coincidence that Harman Kardon revived its storied Citation brand for its new whole-home audio line. The original Citations, in Hi-Fi’s golden age, were revered for their advanced engineering and sonic abilities. Similarly, this new line merges superior sound with the ease of Google’s top technologies, for an entirely satisfying experience that fits today’s lifestyles.
What ‘Hey Google’ gets you:
Like most obedient intelligent servants, the Google Assistant listens and responds to your every command. The Google Home app (free, iOS and Android) means simple set-up, connection and control of one Citation speaker or a houseful, plus complete integration with all the intelligent objects – lights to locks to shades – in your ever-smarter home.
Chromecast nearly anything:
A world of music is at your finger-taps with the Citation 500’s built-in Chromecast. Cast directly from your phone, tablet, or other device, from app or from browser, with more than 300 online music services, Internet radio stations, podcasts, and other sources at the ready.
