According to our receiver expert
The Harman Kardon AVR 161S is an audio-video receiver that can handle all sorts of video and audio sources. You can connect your Blu-ray player, media center, and computer to the 5 HDMI ports, for instance. Thanks to HDMI 2.0, the receiver will effortlessly transmit UHD-resolution video to your TV. By connecting the amplifier to your home network, you'll have access to internet radio and your own online music library with Spotify Connect. With the HDMI MHL input, you can send the audio and video of a mobile device to the receiver, allowing you to watch or listen to photos, videos, and music on your TV and speakers.

Have been using the 161s for about 3 weeks now (is used a lot) and I am very satisfied with it.

Bought this to replace Harman Kardon's HS 650 DL. Was a matter of transferring wiring + converting old complicated double audio/video connections to the simple HDMI connections. Take a look at the manual to connect a PS3 & ChromeCast 2.0 to the correct HDMI port. Was actually done in 30 mins. The AVR 161S then added to preprogrammed Activities on the Logitech Harmony One remote. My son found the Bluetooth connection very useful and in no time streamed his music from his iPhone through the speakers. Via the quick buttons on the front you can easily choose the correct sound setting (without remote control). Picture & sound are just good as you would expect from Harman Kardon. So I am a very satisfied customer.

My Onkyo recriver no longer fit in my new TV cabinet. As about any brand, the Harman Kardon does fit. In addition, it is a complete device with all the features I need. An additional advantage is that my equipment starts up faster again. in combination with my LG 4K OLED and Ziggo Horizon it took a minute before there was an image. No one knew why and nothing could be done about it. However, that is over. With the Harman Kardon there is an immediate image again.
