From respected manufacturer Harman Kardon, the AVR255 is a superb 7.1 channel, HD Home Cinema Receiver that is bursting with features and delivers a fantastic audio and video performance.
Designed for the high definition era, the AVR-255 is perfect for use with Blu-ray, DVD and Freeview/Freesat TV boxes. With Faroudja DCDi processing and HDMI v1.3a connectivity, the 255 will convert all video sources to HDMI and upscale them beautifully to 1080p resolution - so whatever you're watching it will look at its very best on your HD-Ready flatscreen TV or projector. There's also a host of inputs allowing you to connect all your devices and switch between them with ease.
HD audio is dealt with just as competently. With Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, Blu-ray soundtracks will sound simply amazing. Plus, Dolby Digital and DTS decoding is also here for standard DVD and the AVR 255 does a impressive job of handling stereo hifi recordings. Its impressive frequency bandwidth also makes it ideal for use with Super Audio CD and DVD-Audio players.
On top of all this, you'll also get an FM/AM tuner with RDS and RadioText, amplified second zone support, auto-calibration microphone set-up, and an on-screen display. Combined with a sturdy, robust design featuring a gloss black/brushed aluminium fascia, the Harman Kardon AVR255 AV Receiver will make a fantastic centrepiece for your home cinema system.
