Ein defekter Verstärker – das ließe sich wahrscheinlich mit relativ geringem Aufwand beheben.
This €50 parts-only listing is an absolute bargain, sitting far below any realistic used market floor for a functioning Harman Kardon PM655. Even as a non-working unit, the asking price is roughly 80%–90% lower than the typical €350–€400 range for restored or working examples in Europe, making it a strong deal for anyone with repair skills or a need for spare parts.
The PM655 is a well-regarded 1985–1986 Japanese-made integrated delivering 60W per channel with high voltage and high current, prized for its wide bandwidth (0.2Hz–150kHz), low distortion (0.08%), and robust heavy-duty build that enthusiasts still recommend for its phenomenal sound. At this price, the upside is immense: you’re getting a rare, high-performance vintage amp for parts or a project, with almost no financial risk, and if you can revive it, you’ll own an amplifier that sounds exceptional for its era.

Harman Kardon traces its origins to 1953, when Dr. Sidney Harman and Bernard Kardon, both engineers frustrated with conservative audio manufacturing at the David Bogen Company, invested $5,000 each to launch their venture in Westbury, New York. Their debut product, the Festival D1000, became the world's first compact AM/FM hi-fi receiver, blending breakthrough technology with sleek design to make high-fidelity sound accessible beyond technical enthusiasts. Pioneering innovations like the 1958 Festival TA230 stereo receiver, the 1959 Citation II ultra-wide bandwidth tube amplifier, and the 1970 CAD5 hi-fi cassette recorder with Dolby noise reduction cemented their legacy in simplifying premium audio for the home.
The brand focuses on integrated receivers, amplifiers, tuners, and speakers that emphasize performance, reliability, and elegant industrial design. Over decades, it expanded into home theater systems and automotive audio, powering systems in vehicles from Land Rover and BMW to Volvo and Polestar. While not delving into turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, Harman Kardon prioritizes cohesive hi-fi components that deliver warm, detailed sound without unnecessary complexity.
Harman Kardon holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, renowned among knowledgeable buyers for its enduring quality and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica or vintage collector status. Now part of Harman International, it appeals to discerning listeners seeking dependable, stylish gear that echoes its innovative heritage without commanding boutique premiums.
