Hi there! I'm selling my Harman Kardon AVR 330 with DVD 22 and AVR 3600 with BDP1 (US Version-110 volts) because I'm upgrading to HK AVR 7550 HD. I also have brand new (still sealed) Samsung LCD TV-LA32D403 which I got free when I bought my Samsung LED TV. If interested and other details, just PM me.

Just wanted to share my visit to the Harman Outlets in Dubai, UAE.

sir, ask ko lang kung magkano ang hk 990 dyan. thanks.

Mga Sir, ask ko lang,

If I will upgrade from
from AVR240
65 Watts per channel, 20Hz–20kHz,
two channels driven @ 8 ohms
<0.07% THD,
to AVR265
95W per channel, 20Hz – 20kHz,
two channels driven @ 8 ohms,
<0.09% THD

Would it be a night and day difference po
sa sound ng Wharfedale 9.6? or ano kaya ang
mano-notice ko na difference in terms of sound quality?
Thanks!

Can I pair H/K with Wharfedale Diamond 9.2/CS/SRs? I'm planning to get an Onkyo but saw the Harman Kardon AVR 2650. I'm upgrading my entry level Yamaha RX-V361. My room is not that big but I'm tired of the wire clutter of the 361 which don't have HDMI. Will the sound be night and day for H/K having a high current amp? Please advise.

Brand new entry level model available for audition.

it sounds very good too considering the entry level price.

COMING VERY SOON!!!

Tavus · « **Reply #4001 on:** Sep 23, 2012 at 01:47 PM »

What? a new model already. This is very different from harman kardon, they usually take a two year cycle to release new models. So do we expect new models ever year now?
I hope the 375 will have pre outs again

AirPlay? Wow, i just realized my 235 is already too old and definitely needs an update. Please PM target release date. I need to save for this.

Heres a auggestion if your just looking for airplay, how about getting an apple tv instead? Saves some bucks.

Tavus · « **Reply #4004 on:** Sep 26, 2012 at 05:14 PM »

did some digging on the new units apparently there is an android app out now for the new models and yes it will work on the new 270 and the 370 too.

@avshop: thank you for the information about the hk avt 170 (avr 1700 here in the u.s.), sana merong available dito for demo para makita performance =)

m35ius · « **Reply #4006 on:** Sep 27, 2012 at 01:39 AM »

which is a better buy?

harman kardon avr 1700 - http://www.harmankardon.com/EN-US/Products/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?PID=AVR%201700

or

harman kardon avr 2650 - http://www.harmankardon.com/EN-US/Products/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?PID=AVR%202650

Tavus · « **Reply #4007 on:** Sep 27, 2012 at 09:34 AM »

no contest if your looking for power then the 2650 is better.
functionality may the newer 1700.

That's weird ever time i enter the harman kardon usa site i'm always redirected away form it. its very odd and annoying.

I've been getting this fro almost a year.

i wonder if it has anything to do with linking there products to pinoydvd?

Hi sir, I had the same problem and sent it this morning sa B.I.

Naayos po ba sa inyo? How much nagastos niyo? hehe mine is the older HK AVR 134, dadiagnose pa daw. ^_^

Tavus · « **Reply #4009 on:** Nov 27, 2012 at 06:51 PM »

The new harman kardon receivers will feature a digital power supply, so it's lighter than the older models. The advatage of this new amp is it can switch between 110 to 220 on the fly. It's amplifier is still class ab though.

Tavus · « **Reply #4010 on:** Nov 29, 2012 at 04:20 PM »

found this one on the harman kardon website.

Good job.

tanong lang ng availability at price ng AVR 170 at AVR 270. salamat.

nesty · « **Reply #4014 on:** Dec 05, 2012 at 06:43 PM »

To the Harman owners,

I just want to ask. Historically harman is 70% Music / 30% HT a few years back.
My question is ganun pa rin ba yung new models nowadays? thanks

Tavus · « **Reply #4015 on:** Dec 06, 2012 at 09:10 AM »

I dont think there is any criteria for 70% Music / 30% HT. All i know is, if it sounds good then its good.
i did a side by side between my hk 1600 and pioneer 819 and i find the hk'S dialogue to be slightly muffled and its bass is very good while the pioneer dialogue sounded clearer but the bass slightly less. I think they did some changes on the 170.

nesty · « **Reply #4016 on:** Dec 06, 2012 at 11:46 PM »

Thanks for the feedback. Dati kasi afaik HK 70/30 models music/ht sila. Previously, plan ko palitan denon ko to a pure music amp like rega or rotel. pero i change my mind and I'm now looking for avr para 2 in 1.

Dedicated integrated amps will usually sound better for music than home theate receivers.

harman kardon avr 370 will have preouts. http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B008ZBP3W6/elektronik_amba2-21
