Congratulations! With the purchase
of the Harman Kardon AVR35 you are
about to begin many years of listening
enjoyment. The AVR35 has been custom
designed to provide all the excitement
and detail of movie sound tracks and
every subtle nuance of musical selec-
tions. With on-board Dolby
*
Digital
Decoding, the AVR35 delivers six discrete
channels of audio that take advantage of
the digital sound tracks from the latest
DVD and LV releases, as well as future
HDTV broadcasts.
While complex digital systems are hard
at work within the AVR35 to make all of
this happen, hookup and operation are
simple. Color-keyed connections and a
comprehensive programmable remote
control make the AVR35 easy to use.
To obtain maximum enjoyment from
your new receiver, we urge you to take a
few minutes to read through this manual.
This will ensure that connections to
speakers, source playback units and other
external devices are made properly. In
addition, a few minutes spent learning
the functions of the various controls will
enable you to take advantage of all the
power the AVR35 is able to deliver.

Description and Features
The AVR35 is a full-featured A/V receiver,
incorporating a wide variety of listening
options. In addition to Dolby Digital
decoding, Dolby Pro Logic
*
and Dolby 3
Stereo are available for compatibility
with the tens of thousands of movies and
television programs encoded with analog
surround information. A choice of Hall
and Theater modes is also available for

tional two-channel stereo recordings.
A total of four audio/video inputs, as well
as two additional audio-only inputs, and
an FM stereo/FM/AM tuner are available

inputs simplify connections to video
games or camcorders.
The AVR35’s powerful amplifiers use
traditional Harman Kardon High-Current
Design philosophies to meet the wide
dynamic range of any program selection.
Harman Kardon invented the high-
fidelity receiver more than forty-five years
ago. With state-of-the-art features and
time-honored circuit designs, the AVR35 is
one of the finest receivers ever offered by
Harman Kardon.
