Harman Kardon GLA-55 Unveiled

Tweet

Harman Kardon has unleashed a pair of very expensive high-end speakers. The GLA-55 feature a diamond-inspired transparent design and (according to Harman Kardon) “[combine] numerous proprietary technologies to provide the highest audio quality.” Oh yeah, and a $1000 price tag.

Harman Kardon is a well known audio equipment company, and their latest PC speaker set is the definition of ‘high-end’. The GLA-55 offer things like Atlas AL and CMMD transducers, allowing better sound quality at high and low frequencies. HK boasts that the GLA-55′s equalization is optimized to allow a rich sound stage over multiple different positions of the speakers, which is good for a 2.0 PC speaker set.

The GLA-55 also features ‘touch-sensitive controls’ on the device, which I assume is like a touchscreen. But it isn’t just a set of high-end speakers, as the GLA-55 is also a “piece of art” according to Harman Kardon VP Kurt Sollund. If you’re looking to purchase a new piece of art for your computer desk that will also help you hear the funny sounds on your YouTube clips, the Harman Kardon GLA-55 speaker set is now out and has an price tag of $999.99.
