The Vintage Harman Kardon 430 stereo receiver is one name that comes up over and over again as rated by users as one of the best vintage stereo receivers. This model was manufactured between 1976 and 1977. The receiver features a 25-watt per channel output which sounds much louder due to the dual mono technology which ties together two large capacitors with two large transformers per channel. This model is also noted as having superb clarity and detail.

The incredible attraction of the 430 is the sound for most enthusiasts. Even back in the seventies when this amp was made it stood out. I sold these and many other brands at a hi fi store and the 430 had a reputation even back then and was demonstrably better sounding than other brands and than its siblings the 330C, 630 and 730. I had forgotten about it until recently. After hearing much about this receiver and hearing it sound pretty grand in a friend’s large system, I fell in love again, it sounds far more powerful that the 25 watts sound when buying this collector’s item.
Although packed very carefully, we ship our HiFi equipment with MyParcel (they work together with the common delivery firms), shipment risks are fully for the buyer- receiving party.
