Did you know?

If you want to add a new dimension to your culinary experiences, the good people of the HARMAN Luxury Audio Team are here to teach you how!  Even if you don’t care much for the culinary arts yourself, “sonic seasoning” just might help you make your next sale.

Sonic Seasoning

Intuitively, I think we all understand that the sounds in our environment have a huge impact on how we feel and experience life. As per usual, scientists are studying these phenomena and explaining how they work, and they are confirming what we already suspected: HARMAN Luxury Audio products make everything better, including your dinner! OK, that wasn’t directly mentioned in the study, but it’s a short leap to make and we’ll tell you why.

The HARMAN Curve

First off, a full-range, well-balanced playback system is essential to a great listening experience. This is why HARMAN has spent thousands of hours researching how to make things sound juuust right, and that’s how the HARMAN Curve was created, courtesy of Dr. Floyd Toole and Dr. Sean Olive (look them up, they embody audio awesomeness!).

Choosing your Playlist

In our experience, well-recorded albums with a well-balanced musical palette go best with a nice dinner. For example, jazz with a robust upright bass, just the right amount of sizzle in the drums, the silky smooth tones of brass, and elegant piano work…that’s a good sonic recipe to enhance the flavors of your favorite date-night meal, all whilst encouraging conversation and a comfortable pace of eating (you can’t go wrong with Dave Brubek).

The Importance of Choosing the Right System

All of these essential elements come together to create the desired effect: making your experience more pleasant, and making your dinner taste better. That said, the reverse is also true: you can choose the best music in the world, but if your system doesn’t rock, you could actually ruin your dinner. Science says so!

Takeaways & Next Steps

This is yet another reason to recommend that your customers purchase products from the HARMAN Luxury Audio porfolio. They will appreciate knowing that they have what they need to create fantastic audio experiences of all types, including culinary ones, and you can be proud knowing that you have empowered them to have more harmonious meal-times.

Now that you are armed with this essential information, hop on over to HARMAN University to load up on more great info to support you in making great sales - and in making your customers’ dinners taste better!

Warning: Upon completion of these courses, you may find yourself selling with greater confidence. Use at your own risk (of success).
