Immersive sound
Using no fewer than nine separate speaker units, the Citation Bar sounds spacious and dynamic. Dedicated left, centre and right speaker systems mean that dialogue remains crisp and easy to hear while the full impact of the soundtrack is evenly dispersed across your room. Separate tweeter units give precise clarity while the ‘race track’ woofer units supply plenty of bass.
Harman Kardon quality
World renowned for their premium home and in-car hi-fi systems, Harman Kardon have over 65 years of high-end audio experience. This immense knowledge is condensed into the Citation Bar for first-rate sound quality. Sounding every bit as good with music as TV, games and movies, the Bar gives you top-notch sound from all your home entertainment.
Make it 5.1 surround, with optional Sub and Surround speakers
As good as the Bar sounds, you can easily take it to the next level with the optional Sub and Surrounds. The Sub extends the bottom end for window-rattling bass and is especially effective with action movies for ‘edge of seat’ movie night excitement. For the full home cinema effect, place the Surround speakers behind you and enjoy special effects all around the room. For convenience, both the Sub and Surround speakers use wireless connectivity with the Bar.
The hub of your system – with 3 x HDMI
With three HDMI inputs, it’s not just your TV that benefits from this great sounding speaker. Plug in your games console, DVD/Blu-ray and even your home computer and enjoy the same immersive sound across all sources. Connect your TV via the HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) and pull the TV’s sound output back to the soundbar.
Sleek, good looks
Using a premium wool blended fabric, made by Kvadrat, and rounded style the Citation Bar blends smoothly with your room. Available in black or grey the speaker is both distinctive and unobtrusive.
Built-in Google Assistant for voice support
With Google Assistant built-in, this Harman Kardon soundbar is also a Smart speaker. Just talk to the Bar to stream music, find answers on Google Search (the world’s most popular search engine) and manage everyday tasks. As part of the Google Home system, you can also use the speaker to voice control your smart home – perfect for keeping control of a Nest thermostat, for example.
Chromecast Support for near limitless audio streaming
Chromecast Audio lets you stream music, podcasts and audio apps. With over 300 music services available, there’s always something to listen to on the Citation Bar.
Stream direct with Bluetooth 4.2
As well as wi-fi music streaming, the Citation Bar also accepts Bluetooth. For quick and easy music streaming, simply pair your smartphone or tablet and go. Ideal for parties or when friends come over, Bluetooth connectivity is ideal for quick and easy music sharing.
Make it into a Citation multi-room system
As part of the Citation multi-room system, you can create a harmonious sound system all around your home. Use the Google Home-app (available for Apple iOS and Android) on your smartphone or tablet and play different music in different rooms or choose to play the same music throughout – perfect for parties, entertaining or just for music as you clean up!
Better sound for TV, movies, streaming music plus a sophisticated Smart speaker to boot, the Citation Bar is a quality one-box solution that does it all.

Great sound, crap system
Had this product just over a year now. Sound quality is very good. However, I NEED to use Google Home, which I do NOT like to use. I should not be MADE to use google home to use a sound bar :(
Sound keeps cutting out part way through a film or program.
I would not recommend this product and have advised friends not to purchase this sound bar. Over priced for what it is.
A lot of reviews say how good it it. I disagree. This product was recommended by Richer Sounds staff member also, which edged me to get it. I do not blame them as they have more experience than myself.
If I could return it and get my money back or replace it with another sound bar I would. Somehow I do not think that will happen.

Great sound
I rather ambitiously bought this for a fairly large kitchen space following the advice of the team at Stockport. I did fear it wouldn’t quite fill the room or have depth but it’s absolutely brilliant. Nice sleek little wall brackets and great functionality via Google Home app. Great piece of kit
