Harmon Kardon 730 phono section

[mg184]

I'm considering purchasing a Harmon Kardon 730 SS receiver to match with my Dynaco A25's and was wondering how the phono section is rated. I have a Thorens 125 mkII with a Nagaoka 110 cartridge that I will using with the receiver.

What is that - a Harmon Kardon?

he's kidding..........

Many people spell Harman wrong. I have a 730 in my main system right now and I think it has an excellent phono section. As good or better than my Yamaha CR-840. Haven't had any really higher end gear for a while but I would say for a receiver, that the phono section is excellent.

I had a HK 730 awhile back and it had a very nice phono section. I also loved it's stylish looks.
