HiQnet™ Networking
The LSR4300 Series also incorporates the new Harman HiQnet™ protocol that networks all
the speakers in a system together and allows full control from the provided wireless remote
control or from any computer via a standard USB connection and LSR4300 Control Center
Software. With the push of a button or the click of a mouse you can change the system level,
choose from any of three different inputs (one analog and two digital), mute and solo
individual speakers, and make low and high frequency EQ adjustments.
LSR Linear Spatial Reference Design
The LSR4300 builds on the Linear Spatial Reference technology that has made our LSR6300
Series of studio monitors so popular in recording, broadcast, and postproduction facilities
worldwide. The exact geometry of the wave guide, the interaction of the woofer and tweeter,
and the final assembly of the injection-molded parts has been redesigned from the ground up
to provide accurate off-axis as well as on-axis listening, within a window of +/-30 degrees
horizontal, +/- 15 degrees vertical. Attention to these critical aspects results in neutral mid and
high frequency response at the mix position and a sound which is smooth and accurate in a
wide variety of acoustic spaces.
Surround Smart
The LSR4300 Series is ideal for surround sound use. Up to eight main speakers – any
combination of LSR4326 6-inch and LSR4328 8-inch models – and up to two LSR4312SP
subwoofers can be easily configured for LCRS, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 SDDS and larger mixing and
monitoring applications.
Once all LSR4300 monitors are in place, RMC and HiQNet automatically aligns the entire
system, setting relative volume so that the sound from all channels is balanced when it arrives
at the mix position. The end result is precise imaging regardless of each monitor’s actual
physical placement.
In addition, the ability to centrally control the volume of all the speakers (via the supplied
wireless remote control or LSR4300 Control Center software) is particularly useful in
surround sound applications where the recording system does not provide a multi-channel
monitor volume control, or where adjustable volume is not available when using the
mixing system’s digital outputs. Similarly, the ability to selectively mute or solo channels and
to remotely switch between three digital and analog input sources enhances system capabilities
by allowing you to monitor not only the main recording system, but also any two additional
connected sources such as DVD and CD players, multi-channel processors and encode-decode
units. This alleviates the need to purchase additional outboard monitoring hardware.
Selectable Inputs
In this age of digital workstations and control surfaces, it isn’t enough to simply provide an
input jack. The LSR4300 offers three separate inputs: stereo high-resolution 96 kHz AES/
EBU and S/PDIF digital inputs, as well as dual balanced analog XLR and ¼-inch inputs with
selectable +4dBu / -10dBV sensitivity. This allows it to accommodate a wide range of input
sources, including digital workstations, CD players, DVD players, and multi-channel proces-
sors. What’s more, you can easily select between inputs with the push of a single button (on
either the front panel or the wireless remote) or click of a mouse (via an attached computer and
the included LSR4300 Control Center software).
