The Harman/Kardon AVR-347 is one of the lower-priced 1080p HDMI receivers available on the market today for those looking to get updated to the newest technologies. The receiver delivers plenty of power along with 1080p compatibility and upconversion over HDMI. The Harman/Kardon AVR-347 appears to be a no-compromise head unit capable of driving a fully-equipped home theater. With a host of features and a unique visual appeal, this receiver will also fit right in among the most elegant of home decors. But don’t let its good looks deceive you, because this receiver is more than capable of driving most speaker systems made to extremely high levels. The AVR-347 has more about it than a pretty face.

Some of the more notable features include 7.1 channel digital audio decoding, Logic 7 audio processing for 2 channel sources, and analogue video upconversion to HDMI (v1.1) at up to 720p resolutions (1080i or 1080p is not available as an upconverted resolution via HDMI though 1080i component analogue input will be passed through HDMI unchanged). DCDi by Faroudja handles the deinterlacing and scaling, so your video should look pristine. Some notes: 1080p resolution is only available as a pass-through and repeater for increased cable lengths without signal degradation. Since the HDMI chip in this system is 1.1, it will handle all the high definition audio formats, but only in either PCM format or native MLP for DVD-Audio discs. Native SACD isn't supported and can only be transmitted via PCM conversion (or analogue transmission) on the part of the player. The EzSet/EQ feature, Dolby Digital and dts DSP modes and XM satellite radio and iPod support (with optional and awkwardly-named "The Bridge" docking station) make this a well-rounded product suitable for nearly everyone. An RS-232C port is available "for software upgrades" but is not configured for use with advanced home automation systems or direct serial control of the receiver. That just about kills the chances of the HK being used for professional high-end installations. The HDMI repeater functions alone make this a noteworthy upgrade over the AVR-247 and also justifies the extra cost.

The AVR-347 is conservatively rated at 55 watts x 7 (All channels operating at full-rated power, THD <0.07%, 20Hz - 20kHz into 8 ohms) and 70 Watts per channel (20Hz – 20kHz, @ <0.07% THD, 2 channels driven into 8 ohms). There's even a "standard" rating of 95 watts x 7, THD <0.07%, @1kHz into 8ohms which is what a lot of the competition uses. That's a whole lot of ratings, but it just means that Harman Kardon is serious about its power. We're convinced it could handle all but the most difficult loads in any reasonably-sized listening room.
