Harman Kardon's latest AVRs will be crammed with an exciting mix of performance enhancing and convenience features.

This lineup starts with two 5.1-channel models, the AVR 146 at just $349 and the AVR 147 at $449. The line ramps up to 7.1-channels with the AVR 247 for $549 and the AVR 347 at $999.

The entire line includes HDMI switching with the capacity to pass through 1080p video from Blu-ray and HD DVD players. All models include enhanced iPod audio and video playback when used with HK's iPod Bridge dock. All models except the AVR 146 are XM Satellite Radio compatible, and feature EZSet/EQ automated calibration and room EQ, A/V Sync Delay and the legendary Logic 7 surround enhancement that used to be exclusive to Lexicon's high-end separates.

The step-up AVR 247 and AVR 347 also feature A-BUS conectivity for multizone.

The enitre line will be available at retail by April of 2007. The AVR 347 and the AVR 247 offer Faroudja video processing and 720p upconversion.
