Product Information

Harman Kardon's AVR 500 combines excellence with ease of use. Harman Kardon has long been known for their clean sounding high current amplifiers and stylish designs. They are able to brilliantly integrate these features into an easy-to-use high-performance machine. At 70 watts of high-current power to all 5 channels, this receiver has plenty of juice to produce incredible, room-shaking surround sound while still being able to deliver crisp, clear music and vocals.The high current design and ultrawide-bandwidth make for increased load capacity, better peak and valley reproduction, and flat-out better sound. Hearing is believing, and the AVR 500 effortlessly proves that to be true. Harman Kardon stays on top of cutting-edge technology, by adding features such as Logic 7 Cinema and Surround Modes and VMAx Virtual Surround Sound. Logic 7 Cinema and Music Surround was developed for creating multi-channel surround playback from two-channel sources, such as music. VMAx, Virtual Multi Axis Sound, recreates a realistic, multi-channel effect from any source by simulating a large "sweet spot". VMAx technology is currently being used in some virtual reality games - it enables the listener to place themselves as close or as far from their speakers, while still receiving the full effect of the sound. Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS are also on board, allowing you to decode virtually any source out there. As one of the newest members of the Harman Kardon family, the AVR 500 easily earns its place in the ranks as a winner. By combining new technology and features with their reputable standards of phenomenal sound and user-friendliness, Harman Kardon has done it again.
