delivers six discrete channels of audio that take
advantage of the digital sound tracks from the
latest DVD and LD releases and Digital Television
broadcasts.

Description and Features

The AVR 132 is among the most versatile and
multi-featured A/V receivers available,
incorporating a wide range of listening options.
In addition to Dolby Digital and DTS decoding
for digital sources, a broad choice of analog
surround modes are available for use with
sources such as CD, VCR, TV broadcasts and the
AVR’s own FM/AM tuner. Along with the latest
Dolby ProLogic II

decoding technology, Dolby 3

Stereo, 5 Ch Stereo and custom Hall and Theater
modes, only Harman Kardon receivers offer Logic
7

to create a wider, more enveloping field

environment and more defined fly-overs and
pans.
In addition to providing a wide range of listening
options, the AVR 132 is easy to configure so that
it provides the best results with your speakers
and specific listening-room environment.
A Stereo-Direct mode bypasses the digital
processor to preserve all of the subtleties of
older analog, two-channel materials, while bass
management, available in the surround and
Stereo-Digital modes,improves your ability to
tailor the sound to suit your room acoustics or
taste.

For the ultimate in flexibility, the AVR 132
features connections for four video devices, all
with both composite and S-Video inputs,
including the front-panel inputs. Two additional
audio inputs are available, and a total of six
digital inputs make the AVR 132 capable of
handling all the latest digital audio sources.
A video recording output and a six-channel
input make the AVR 132 virtually future-proof,
with everything needed to accommodate
tomorrow’s new formats right on board.

The AVR 132’s powerful amplifier uses
traditional Harman Kardon high-current design
technologies to meet the wide dynamic range of
any program selection.

Harman Kardon invented the high-fidelity
receiver fifty years ago. With state-of-the-art cir-
cuitry and time-honored circuit designs, the
AVR 132 is one of the finest receivers ever
offered by Harman Kardon within its price range.
