Well, in short it is the Harman / kardon; where they were like do not like. The finish is pretty decent although the old series was still more refined and more colorful. The display of LED decoding formats and entry selected that one can find on AVR series has gone and that's a shame. However, the type of display "dot matrix" knows prevail in the center of the façade exudes legible information without necessarily being in front of the nose. The audio pre-out output 7.2 is rather pleasant for the connection of external powers blocks where a band of VU meters for fun! To my regret, however, there is no analog audio input in 7.1, it is especially bad for the "amateurs" analogue sound; yet it was handy for a magneto connected multi tracks ... The device is quite light and it is best to leave a can of goshawks space and especially on top because it goes faster ... The temperature owned tuner good sensitivities and in general, the handling is rather pleasant. The remote for my taste imposing a can. The volume controls response curve is nice but with a rise smoothly, convenient to watch a movie without shaking the furniture ... In these neighbors are, a nice amp signed Harman / kardon I would advise people still hesitant.
