Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy complete coordination between your iPod and Harman Kardon A/V receiver with "The Bridge" iPod docking station. Compatible with Harman Kardon's AVR 140, 240, 340, and 740 receivers and all iPods with docking connectors, The Bridge literally links the two units, letting listeners navigate and control the iPod using the receiver's remote control. In other words, you can select iPod playlists, skip songs, shuffle selections, and perform a host of other tasks from across the room--or even from down the hall--while the music plays through your home stereo system. Operation couldn't be easier: simply dock your iPod in The Bridge and you're ready to go. The receiver's onscreen and front-panel menus will guide your track selections, so you'll have no problem figuring out which playlist to play. All the while, The Bridge will recharge your iPod's battery.
The Bridge comes with several inserts for coordination with third-generation or later "click wheel" iPods, iPod photos, iPod minis, and iPod nanos (it's not compatible with the iPod shuffle). The sleekly designed docking station also includes a "universal" insert that's designed for use with yet-to-be-released iPods. The Bridge measures 4.5 by 1.19 by 4.5 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

Customer Reviews:
highly annoying user interface.......2007-12-24
I bought the bridge for my AVR 645. While it looks sleek and the sound quality is not bad, the ipod navigation through the OSD is extremely non intuitive. Trying to navigate with the remote is even worse. I would have been better off just connecting my computer to the AVR 645 through the USB input.
HK bridge review.......2007-12-13
The bridge is fantastic, it is fully integrated through the HK receiver and provides a digital sound. This is a must have for your ipod and HK receiver.
Harmon Kardon - The Bridge iPod Dock.......2007-12-12
Previously, we used an Apple dock, which we connected into our A/V receiver input for audio and into an AC outlet for power, using the supplied Apple adapter. It worked fine, but had it's obvious limitations, such as using the iPod in it's dock for music selections or removing it, selecting what you wanted, pausing it, then re-inserting into the dock for playback. Nice, but not ideal. During a power outage and then subsequent surge, our iPod got zapped and needed to be repaired, which we then had performed.
Having just purchased the Harmon Kardon AVR 247 receiver, we became aware of 'The Bridge' iPod dock. We did some research and could see that it would not only replace our Apple dock, but actually had additional capabilities, which were attractive.
We bought 'The Bridge' docking station and installed it easily into AVR 247 by connecting one cable. That connection allows power and charging and provides a signal path as well. No AC outlet or other audio connections are required. Easy! The audio is very good, but the best part is the iPod is fully integrated into the receiver. The iPod LCD screen information is displayed on the face of the receiver and on your television screen, providing the same info to either (or both) without any additional setup or changes. You can use the receiver's remote to control everything that you would using the iPod click wheel as well as controlling the receiver's volume and the particular audio setup as well. The AVR 247 has the software included to perform all of these functions. The downside is, the dock only works with selected HK receivers and not other brands, but this is the perfect marriage between an iPod and home audio. It's a great product that is easy to use and is also inexpensive. I would highly recommend this product.
Great item.......2007-12-08
