3.0 out of 5 stars Too many bugs! Dolby Volume defective [UPDATED], June 28, 2012

This review is from: Harman Kardon AVR 2650 7.1 Channel 95-Watt Audio/Video Receiver with HDMI v.1.4a, 3-D, Deep Color and Audio Return Channel (Electronics)
I upgraded from an H/K AVR330 (2004) to decode DTS-HD and TrueHD. I was also interested in the Dolby Volume feature. I had the AVR 330 for 5 years or so and was EXTREMELY pleased with it, this point is important, because this new unit is not a worthy upgrade.

I got the 2650 from Amazon and hooked it up and after a short while I started noticing loud, high-pitched "pops" or chirps coming from random speakers; they occurred randomly, sometimes 10 minutes apart, other times a dozen in a 5 minute span. I tried a variety of troubleshooting options and eventually sent it into the seller for a replacement (World Wide Stereo was really helpful once they were made aware of my problem).

The replacement unit did the same exact thing, and a Harman/Kardon top-tier tech support arrogantly claimed he'd never heard of such an issue. I wrote this much of this review, and found another customer shared my experience in the comments, and then another, and another. The solution was... Read more

I was a *little* worried, after pulling the trigger on this order, to read that H-K had recently moved its AVR design division to a completely new engineering group. But as it turns out I've had no significant problems with the unit at all.

Bought because I was finally upgrading to a 3D-capable LED-edge lit TV (see my other reviews), and 3D Blu-Ray (ditto), and wanted the full HDMI 1.4 passthru capability in my A/V path. I was replacing a rather old H-K AVR265 or so (I think that's the model number) from circa 2005 I think.

I am using this as the receiver for the aforementioned TV, Blu-Ray, a media streaming device (SageTV HD-300, basically equiv of a Roku or other streaming box although I'm also using the SageTV software on the server for my PVR functionality), and the wife's Wii. Connection paths are HDMI (using passthru) for the TV/Blue-ray, I am using the ARC function on the HDMI-out for the TV audio back to the reciever, HDMI to the SageTV streamer, and... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great mid-level home theater receiver, October 29, 2011

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
If you have that nice 50+" 1080p display but lack theater-quality sound, you need to take the plunge and purchase a decent home theater receiver. This one from Harman Kardon is a great mid-level centerpiece. It also looks nice, with a very modern and simplified industrial design.

At this stage of development most reputable home theater brands sound fantastic. This one is no exception. So really the purchase decision boils down to features.

What I like best about this receiver is that it has a ton of inputs, making it less likely you'll need to rely on the television remote for some devices, the receiver for others. The 2650 features 5 HDMI ports, two component video inputs, and a number of digital audio inputs (both coax and optical). It also supports legacy devices through its three analog audio inputs and two composite video jacks. It does not offer S-video connections.

One thing it lacks is decent iPod functionality. A dock can be purchased... Read more
