Pros: Draws power as needed. Individual amps for every channel.
Cons: Rather large. Light remote. Some confusing menus.
The Bottom Line: It's a strong buy over many of the offerings in its category. With lots of input and output, it will grow with your home theater.

| anrkngl's Full Review: harman/kardon AVR 110 5.1 Channels Receiver |
I have to get this out of the way first: I happen to like Harman Kardon. A LOT. My dad used to run a stereo from them from since before I was born, so I grew up on their amazing sound quality and range.
I bought the AVR 110 because he recently bought one (though it was last years model) and I needed a home system for my DVD/VCR/TV setup. The decision wasn't hard considering my loyalty and experience with their products.
Configuration of the channels is a bit confusing, but after you get used to that and the remote's design, you get a pretty useful set of options at your disposal.
I have the system set up with a coaxial cable from my DVD player, and I'm going to set up the rest later on. It was critical that I get the DVD out of the way first, since this is the primary use for my television set.
As the name implies, the AVR is a Audio/Video receiver, and is well suited toward switching both at the same time. This is great since I need something to keep track of all my equipment. It has 2 digital inputs and 1 digital output, making it great for future expansion.
I'd recommend this product on its producer's history and the quality I've seen thus far.
