Harman Kardon AVR 247 7.1 Channel 65 Watt Receiver. This is possibly the most well maintained example of this receiver I’ve seen. It still has the original plastic cover on the glossy display, so zero scratches or scuffs there. It also has all of the original covers for the front side inputs. Original remote in excellent condition. Works quite well and puts out great sound. Very heavy.

About this product

Product Information

You can upscale your analog video signals to high-resolution 720p video with the Harman Kardon AVR 247. This device has a strong musical ability and will make a great addition to your existing stereo setup. The brand uses EZSET/EQ technology and the high-current, ultra-wide bandwidth amplifier design to provide clarity to the sound it delivers. A conservative 7- by 50-watt output means the receiver has plenty of power on tap and can pump out extremely loud sound for your parties or other get-togethers. Its inputs include two HDMI, two optical, and two coaxial ports. The outputs include a headphone jack and a coaxial digital as well as optical digital ports. Additional features include a universal remote control, a built-in fluorescent display, and an auto-calibration microphone.Harman Kardon receivers are associated with a particular fusion of powerful output and a clean, balanced tone. That is a hard line to maintain because it is easy for that much output to color the underlying signal and introduce distortion. However, the AVR-247 minimizes such distortion to provide you with optimal clarity. Every note and tone comes through clean and clear. Each of the seven channels has 50 watts, which is plenty to drive a big speaker and a subwoofer with each one. You can make the Kardon AVR-247 receiver the heart of your home theater surround sound system. It can improve visual clarity as well as audio quality. The receiver can take any input and scale it up to 720p HD resolution. Many movies are not originally available in anything higher than 420i or 420p, so the ability to upgrade their visuals to take full advantage of a newer HDTV can be a big advantage for you. While the primary role of the AVR is to act as the central hub for your entire system, it has a few special features to make it even more enticing. It can connect to an iPod or external device with just an auxiliary cable. You can also use the remote control to choose songs from the iPod's memory. That means you can replace your earbuds with powered speakers to really immerse yourself in the music. There is also an included AM/FM tuner if you have a favorite radio station that you want to listen to. The Dolby Digital output in each channel is not just for TV. The entire unit can function as the core of your home entertainment system in every dimension. It has two HDMI input ports and one output port for as many connections as you need.If you need to drive a nice, powerful set of speakers, play DVDs, and listen to music over the radio or from your iPod, this Harman Kardon AVR receiver can do it all for you. It is a jack of all trades that has mastered the art of preserving the heart and soul of the original audio source.

Does the job
My use is stereo with subwoofer. The quality of music is ok, my luxman was superior. I also watch tv with this setup. The HK has obvious advandages, quality of video,ease of use. Trade-offs.

Set-up
setting everything up can be very confusing I bought mine thinking it was newer then a 2007 and because it was an '07 there were no set-up codes for any of the things that I have like my T.V. cd player etc..so it gets 3.5 out of 5 stars ...oh yea it does sound great..

High Current Discrete Technology (HCDT) does it again with the AVR 145
The Harmon Kardon AVR 145 is very strong sounding 40 WPC RMS x 5 or 50 WPC RMS x 2 AV receiver. Underrated power if you ask me. The sound quality of this unit is very nice. Some shortfalls is that It only has one subwoofer preamp output and there are no other preamp outputs so I think this unit could have been improved in that area. Also it is a 5 channel system so for those seeking more channels you may want to look at some other options. At first I was cautious about the power rating, but I threw that idea out the window once I hooked it up and listened to some nice tracks of Estaban. I did use a powered subwoofer with this system and I do highly recommend that you do the same. The quality of the music reproduction of this receiver is outstanding - you won't be disappointed. I'm very particular about this and I wouldn't say it if I didn't believe myself. I have a video on YT that you can watch about this unit that I think would be useful in your consideration of this receiver. You'll have to search for it as I can't place the link in this review. As far as looks you can't get a more elegant look for a receiver in any price range if you ask me. Particularly looks nice in lower light environments. Perhaps a Marantz or Mcintosh will look nicer but they are in a different price class altogether you're really getting a lot of value here with this AVR 145.Read full review

Harmon/Kardon AVR 247 Review
I love the sound and power of the unit. I bought it for future HDMI connectivity and the reputation of Harmon-Kardon's quality and value. The refurbished unit I received looked like new. I was surprised that the unit was also loaded with old firmware which I updated with a download from their website. Another reason I bought the unit was the "EZ setup" feature that is supposed to set up the phasing, crossover, and levels of your speakers. So far I have not been able to make this work and have been trying to resolve this problem with their tech support via e-mail. They must be swamped because it takes days for them to respond, but they do respond eventually. So--don't expect to get a unit that is perfect when you buy refurbished. Overall I am pretty satisfied with this purchase and would do it again.Read full review

Harman Kardon has always had a reputation for quality and this receiver does not disappoint. Sounds great, looks great, tons of connectivity and easy to set up (IF you read the manual). The automated setup is absolutely BRILLIANT!!! My only gripe AT ALL is the standby LED - the amber light is a little too wide and bright, but it does go away if you turn off the master power switch. I replaced a [certain large Japanese manufacturer] surround receiver (that cost more) and I could not be happier; the H/K has half the rated power, but that's just "paper power". My Harman Kardon AVR 247 looks better, sounds better, and is MUCH more solidly built.
