Harman Kardon AVR 325 7.1 AV Receiver 50WPC – 40 lbs! w/ Remote

7.1-channel Harman Kardon home theater receiver with high-current amplification, Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES, Logic 7 processing, and component video switching, in good condition with original remote.

The Harman Kardon AVR 325 is a substantial 7.1-channel AV receiver from the mid-2000s, designed to deliver Harman Kardon’s signature high-current amplification and polished sound quality in a full-featured home theater package. Rated at 50 watts per channel across all seven channels (65 watts in stereo mode) into 8 ohms, this receiver uses a robust power supply and discrete output stages that give it surprising dynamic capability and control over real-world loudspeakers. The AVR 325 supports Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES (both matrix and discrete), Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS Neo:6, and Harman Kardon’s proprietary Logic 7 Cinema and Music modes in both 5.1 and 7.1 versions, creating a wide, enveloping surround field from a variety of source material. This unit is in good cosmetic condition and includes the original Harman Kardon remote.

The back panel offers generous connectivity: three optical and three coaxial digital inputs (one of each on the front panel for convenient access), two component video inputs with wideband switching for HDTV sources and progressive-scan DVD players, plus composite and S-video connections for legacy gear. An eight-channel analog input accommodates external decoders or multichannel sources like SACD and DVD-Audio players. The seven amplifier channels are configurable for either 7.1-channel operation or 5.1-channel main room plus powered stereo Zone 2, making the AVR 325 a capable whole-house audio hub. AM/FM tuner with 30 presets, on-screen display, and RS-232 control port round out the feature set.
