Harman Kardon AVR 1610S review: A good-looking but feature-challenged AV receiver

The Harman Kardon AVR 1610S boasts decent sonic performance, but it's still outdone by its competitors.

The 10-pound Harman Kardon AVR 1610S won't warp your furniture or shelving, and it's got the requisite basic feature set including Bluetooth audio and five HDMI inputs. Sound quality is decent considering the price.

There's no built-in Wi-Fi. The remote's teensy volume control buttons might be a challenge to find in a darkened home theater. The user interface is severely outdated. And the identically priced Yamaha trounces it on features and sound quality.

The Harman Kardon AVR 1610S is a decent AV receiver, but it pales in comparison to plenty of far better alternatives at the same price.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Nice sound

For the price of $199 I got it for on sale at Newegg, this is an absolute steal.

Has a nice sound too it. Using it in a 2.1 setup so couldn't use the built in calibration. Very light, easy to move if necessary. Short and shallow so it can fit in more entertainment centers

Gets warmer than expected when just idling (on but not playing music). OSD menu (settings) not available with all sources, seems to be only available with non HDMI inputs. Just a minor inconvenience, just adjust while on Tuner or Network sources
