Innovation is a combination of major technological breakthroughs and smaller, detail-level enhancements. To deliver the right combination of power, performance, flexibility and ease of use, Harman Kardon has always sought to strike a balance. Harman Kardon carefully weighed the development of key enhancements of the basic underpinnings of audio and video technology against the importance of making these enhancements accessible to both the advanced audiophile and the home theater novice.

When the engineers at Harman Kardon set out to find ways to improve the playback of multichannel sound, they came up with significant improvements that build upon recent advancements in digital technology and take them to the next level: Logic 7.® Originally developed for high-end processors and now featured in luxury automobiles, Logic 7 processing is now part of every A/V receiver we offer. With Logic 7, proprietary digital algorithms are used to create a more cohesive and enveloping sound field from the tens of thousands of analog matrix soundtracks currently available. Logic 7 is not only capable of resolving either five or seven channels from a two-channel source; it increases the accuracy with which sounds are directed to the center and surround channels, for more precise reproduction of the original soundtrack.
