Overall opinions on Harman Kardon


I've noticed a distinct lack of any conversations regarding HK gear. Is this due to it being unpopular, or simply not common in the US?

I remember auditioning a HK integrated amp a couple of years back (before buying a NAD) and thinking it sounding pretty good.

I recently listened in as someone auditioned a pair of Maggies running of an HK A/V receiver. It sounded perfectly fine. Didn't get to a/b it against other amps though.
I've always thought HK is a good sound value but have never been sold on overall reliability and quality control over the years.
The HK 990 looks pretty nice. Lots of current delivery and power doubles into 4 ohm in a $2500 integrated? Gotta check that out sometime.
