Don't be fooled by the AVR 140's modest price. The 6.1-channel A/V receiver--Harmon Kardon's most affordable model--is loaded with features that draw out the excitement and detail of movie soundtracks and the subtlest nuances of your favorite music. The AVR 140 incorporates a number of surround formats, including Dolby Digital and DTS decoding for digital sources, along with a broad choice of Matrix surround-encoded or stereo modes for such sources as CD players, VCRs, TV broadcasts, and the receiver's own AM/FM tuner. The most popular modes include Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, DTS 96/24, Dolby 3 Stereo, and Hall and Theater modes.

Take a closer look at the AVR 140's connections. You can also view the unit's front panel in detail.

Other receiver essentials include high-bandwidth, HDTV-compatible component video switching with assignable inputs, an onscreen menu and display system with the choice of a blue or black background screen, and compatibility with the Bridge, a Harman Kardon device that works with most iPod models. The Bridge lets you operate the iPod from across the room using the AVR 140's remote control, which has been preprogrammed with several iPod control codes. As a result, listeners can select tracks and navigate most iPod functions, charge the unit, or even view track information on the AVR 140's LED display or onscreen menu.

For the ultimate in flexibility, the AVR 140 also sports three component video inputs, four composite video inputs, and four S-video inputs, along with an impressive six digital audio inputs (three optical and three coaxial). Additional jacks include two analog audio inputs, a video recording output, a subwoofer pre-out, and a color-coded eight-channel input.

So whether you're looking to upgrade an old analog system or add high-quality home theater performance to your home, the AVR 140 is a perfect fit. The receiver, which measures 17.3 by 5.9 by 13.8 inches (W x H x D), carries a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
