The Harman Kardon AVR 635 is a seven-channel audio/video receiver designed to deliver high-quality sound performance. With a power rating of 75 watts per channel, it features full autosetup calibration, advanced room equalization, and a comprehensive bass-management system that supports SACD and DVD-Audio inputs. The receiver's aesthetics combine brushed metal with a glossy black finish, though its 17-inch depth may be larger than average. While the unit may exude a noticeable 'new electronics' odor upon unboxing, this dissipates after a short period. The AVR 635 integrates a variety of surround sound formats, including Dolby and DTS in 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 configurations. Its proprietary Logic 7 surround processing enhances audio playback. Additionally, the Dolby Headphone feature allows for surround effects over stereo headphones. The EzSet/EQ autosetup system adjusts for speaker size, level, and room acoustics, albeit with a more complex setup process than some competitors. Connectivity options are extensive, showcasing multiple digital and analog inputs, including six digital audio inputs (three optical and three coaxial) and an eight-channel analog input for SACD/DVD-Audio players. The receiver also supports multiroom setups and includes preamplifier outputs for use with external amplifiers. In performance tests, the AVR 635 has demonstrated impressive sound clarity and detail, making it capable of delivering an immersive audio experience across various media.
