INCLUDE BOTH SIDES OF THE COVER PAGE, RESPONSES TO ITEMS 1-7 2 of 5 (INCLUDING EXHIBITS) OF THE SCHEDULE AND THE SIGNATURE ATTESTATION Item 1. Security and Issuer. This statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Harvey Electronics, Inc., a New York corporation (the "Company"), having its principal executive offices at 205 Chubb Avenue, Lyndhurst, New Jersey 07071. Item 2. Identity and Background. This statement is being filed by Michael E. Recca, a citizen of the USA, having business offices at 100 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005. Mr. Recca's present occupation is consulting. The organization in which Mr. Recca's employment is conducted is Recca & Company, Inc. whose principal business is financial consulting with an address at 100 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005. Mr. Recca is a member and manager of Harvey Acquisition Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("HAC"). Mr. Recca is filing this Schedule 13D because of his position with HAC. During the last five (5) years, Mr. Recca has not been convicted in any criminal proceeding and has not been a party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. On December 12, 1997, the Company filed a registration statement on Form SB-2 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Registration Statement") for the offer and sale (the "Offering") of: (i)2,687,500 shares of Common Stock at a proposed public offering price of $5.00 per share and (ii) 1,625,000 redeemable common stock purchase warrants ("Warrants") at a proposed public offering price of $0.10 per Warrant. The Warrants will be exercisable at $5.50 per share. The Common Stock to be registered includes 100,000 shares owned by HAC (as selling securityholder), which shares may be sold pursuant to an over-allotment option (the "Over-Allotment Option") granted to the underwriters. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full by the underwriters, HAC will receive net proceeds of $435,000, after deducting the underwriters' discounts and non-accountable expense allowance of $65,000. No funds or other consideration were utilized in connection with the grant, during December, 1997, by HAC to InterEquity Capital Partners ("InterEquity") of a put option (the "Put Option") to require HAC to purchase 51,656 shares of Common Stock owned by InterEquity for $70,000 prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. No funds or other consideration were utilized in connection with HAC's agreement to purchase (the "Purchase") 10,000 shares of Common Stock from InterEquity at $5.50 per share within 10 days of the closing of the Offering. No funds or other consideration were utilized in connection with the transfer of 85,000 shares of Common Stock to certain directors and employees of the Company (including 5,000 shares granted to Michael E. Recca) and to E.H. Arnold (a member of HAC and a holder of shares of the Company's Preferred Stock) in November, 1997 (the "Transfer"). Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. HAC granted the Over-Alloment Option to assist the Company in completing the Offering. HAC granted the Put Option to InterEquity because of InterEquity's desire to validate the current value of the shares owned. The value of $70,000 relates to the value ascribed to the "allowed finders fee" incorporated in the Company's Plan of Reorganization as approved by the Bankruptcy Court. HAC agreed to the Purchase of shares from InterEquity because of InterEquity's desire to sell shares, and in consideration of its agreement to "lock-up" its remaining shares. HAC made the Transfer to reward, and give further incentives to, key directors (including Michael E. Recca) and employees of the Company for their performance and to E.H. Arnold for his loan of $350,000 to the Company during February and March, 1997. HAC was formed for the purpose of advancing funds to, and acquiring a controlling interest in, the Company. In order to advance funds to the Company, HAC sold membership units through private placements in 1995 and 1996. HAC intended to distribute the shares of the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan to its members on a pro-rata basis relative to the number of Membership Units owned by each member and to dissolve and liquidate HAC at or about the time of such distribution. HAC also intended to cause the Company to raise funds through a public offering of securities of the Company during 1997, assuming the Company's reorganization plan would be confirmed by the bankruptcy court and the Company would emerge from bankruptcy. Pursuant to the Restated Modified Amended Joint and Substantively Consolidated Plan of Reorganization of the Company dated November 6, 1996 (the "Plan"), which was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on November 13, 1996, HAC received 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of $2,822,500 of subordinated secured financing that HAC provided to the Company during its bankruptcy proceeding (the "Loans"). The Plan became effective as of December 26, 1996. In accordance with the Plan, the following events took place: (i) the Company was reorganized such that Harvey Sound, Inc., a New York corporation, merged with and into the Company (then known as The Harvey Group Inc.) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 23, 1996. Subsequently, the Company changed its name from The Harvey Group Inc. to Harvey Electronics, Inc.; (ii) the capital structure of the Company was changed as of the effective date of the Plan, by canceling the then outstanding shares of the Company's common stock and preferred stock and authorizing 10,000,000 shares of post-bankruptcy Common Stock and 10,000 shares of post-bankruptcy preferred stock. The holders of Common Stock at the time received, in the aggregate, shares equal to one (1%) percent of the outstanding post-bankruptcy shares of Common Stock, and HAC received 2,000,000 shares, representing 90.5% of the outstanding post-bankruptcy shares of Common Stock. (iii) The Board of Directors of the Company was reconstituted to include seven (7) persons, of which up to three (3) are to be named by HAC. The Company currently has five directors, of which Michael E. Recca, Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors, is a member and manager of HAC. Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, Michael E. Recca currently has no other plans or proposals which relates to, or would result in, the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the issuer, or the disposition of securities of the issuer; an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the issuer or any of its subsidiaries; any change in the present board of directors or management of the issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the issuer; any other material change in the issuer's business or corporate structure; changes in the issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; causing a class of the securities of the issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or any action similar to those enumerated in response to this item. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a) Michael E. Recca owns beneficially 1,920,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock as of the date of this Schedule 13D, which represents eighty-five (85%) percent of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. (b) Mr. Recca has the sole power to vote, or to direct the vote, and to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, 5000 shares of Common Stock. (c) Mr. Recca shares the power to vote, or to direct the vote, and to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, 1,915,000 shares of Common Stock with HAC. (d) During the past sixty (60) days, except as set forth herein, Mr. Recca has not effected any other transactions in the Common Stock. (e) No other person is known to have the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Recca, other than HAC. (f) Not applicable. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. Reference is made to Item 3 regarding the Over-Allotment Option, the Purchase, and the Put Option. Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits. The following documents are attached hereto as exhibits: The Plan, annexed hereto as Exhibit 2, together with the Order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, annexed hereto as Exhibit 2.1, dated November 13, 1996, confirming the Plan.

To the extent a Claim is a Disputed Claim, Distributions allocable thereto shall not be made to the holder of such Claim but shall be held in a Disputed Claim Account if the Distribution would have been Cash or in treasury stock if the Distribution would have been New Common Stock. When a Disputed Claim, or any portion thereof, becomes an Allowed Claim, the Disbursing Agent shall cause a Distribution to be made to the holder of such Allowed Claim or in accordance with the provisions of this Plan with respect to treatment of the Class of Creditors in which the Allowed Claim is classified within ten (10) Business Days after the order which Allows such Claim becomes a Final Order. 7.01.04. The Confirmation Fund shall be closed by the Debtors as of the first (1st) Business Day after the later of the last check on account of a Distribution is cleared and paid upon by the payor bank and the date under this Plan that the last of unclaimed Distributions become Unclaimed Property. If a Priority Non-Tax Claim, A Priority Tax Claim, Administrative Claim, or a Convenience Claim is a Disputed Claim, then a Distribution allowable thereto shall be transferred from the Confirmation Fund to a Disputed Claim Account. All Allowed Priority Tax Claim payments after the first payment, (which shall be made from the Confirmation Fund), shall be made by Reorganized Harvey from operating or other revenues. 7.02. Fractional Cents. Any other provision of this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no payments of fractions of cents shall be made. Whenever any payment of a fraction of a cent would otherwise be called for, the actual payment shall reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole cent (up or down). 7.03. Calculation of Distribution Amounts of New Equity. Any other provision of this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) no fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be issued or distributed, and (b) no Cash will be paid nor other Distribution made in lieu of whole or fractional shares not issued or distributed because of the provisions of this Section 7.03. 7.04. Unclaimed Property. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event and at such time as any Distribution under this Plan becomes Unclaimed Property, then the Entity to which such Distribution was to have been made shall forfeit all rights thereto, and thereafter the Claim or Interest in respect of which such Distribution was to have been made shall be treated as a Disallowed Claim or Interest not subject to section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code. In this regard, Distributions to Claimants entitled thereto shall be sent to their last known address set forth on a proof of claim filed with the Court or, if no proof of claim is filed, on the schedules filed by the Debtors, or as set forth in the most recently available records of the Debtors or to such other address as may be requested in writing on or before the Effective Date by a Claimant. Any Distributions of New Common Stock to holders in Class 7 which are returned under this Article shall be held by Group as treasury stock.

ARTICLE IX EFFECT OF THE PLAN ON HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND EXISTING EQUITY INTERESTS 9.01. Injunction. In implementing the discharge provided in Section 8.01 of this Plan, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, the Confirmation Order shall provide, among other things, that all Entities who have held, hold or may hold Claims or Existing Equity Interests against the Debtors are permanently enjoined on and after the Effective Date: (a) from commencing or continuing in any manner, directly or indirectly, any action or other proceeding of any kind with respect to any such Claim or Existing Equity Interest against the Debtors or the property of the Debtors with respect to any such Claim or Existing Equity Interest; (b) from the enforcement, attachment, collection or recovery by any manner or means, directly or indirectly, of any judgment, award, decree, or order against the Debtors or the property of the Debtors with respect to any such Claim or Existing Equity Interest; (c) from creating, perfecting or enforcing, directly or indirectly, any encumbrance of any kind against the Debtors, or against the property of the Debtors, with respect to any such Claim or Existing Equity Interest; (d) from asserting, directly or indirectly, any set-off, right of subrogation, or recoupment of any kind against any obligation due the Debtors, or against the property of the Debtors, with respect to any such Claim or Existing Equity Interest; and (e) from any act, in any manner, in any place whatsoever, that does not conform to or comply with the provisions of this Plan relating to any Claim or Existing Equity Interest. Nothing contained in this Plan including this Section 9.01 shall: (a) prohibit the holder of a timely filed Claim to which the Debtors have timely filed an objection from litigating its right to seek to have such Claim declared an Allowed Claim; or (b) enjoin or prohibit the enforcement by any Claimant of any of the obligations of the Debtors under this Plan.

Disputes Regarding Contract Cures Within thirty (30) days after the Confirmation Date, or by such other time as may be provided under this Plan relevant to any disposition of a Contract Cure, the Debtors shall have satisfied, settled or disposed of the Contract Cures to the licensors, lessors or vendors under the Executory Contracts assumed pursuant to this Section and as listed on Exhibit "1" hereto (subject only to the removal or deletion from said Exhibit as provided in Section 10.01 hereof), unless a lessor, licensor, or vendor under an Executory Contract to be assumed pursuant to this Plan, which disputes its respective Contract Cure, has filed with the Court and has served upon counsel to the Debtors and HAC (at the addresses set forth below) an objection setting forth in reasonable detail the amount and basis for its dispute of the Debtors' proposed Contract Cure; provided, however, that the aforesaid notice must be filed with the Court and received by counsel for the Debtors and HAC in accordance with Section 16.03 of this Plan, not later than twenty (20) days following the Confirmation Date. Failure to timely file and serve its objection shall be an absolute bar and injunction against any Entity's right to object to the Contract Cure or to seek payment of any sums greater than, or treatment different from, the Contract Cure. If the Debtors and the lessor, licensor or vendor disputing the proposed Contract Cure are unable to reach a resolution of such dispute, such dispute shall be submitted to the Court for resolution. If a resolution is not reached or a Court determination is not acceptable to the Debtors, the Debtors shall have the right to make application to the Court to have the subject Executory Contract rejected. 10.03. Rejection Claims. Until fixed by Final Order of the Court, Claims resulting from the rejections pursuant to this Section ("Rejection Claims") shall be treated under this Plan as Disputed Claims purporting to be Class 6 Claims or Class 7 Claims (depending upon the amount of the Disputed Claim to the extent same becomes an Allowed Claim) pending a determination with respect to the Allowance of such Claim in accordance with the provisions of Article XI of this Plan. Any Rejection Claims must be filed with the Clerk of the Court within thirty (30) days after the entry of the Confirmation Order with a copy served upon counsel for the Debtors or be forever barred and the holders of such Claims shall not be treated as Creditors with respect to such Claims for the purposes of distribution hereunder or under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. ARTICLE XI PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED CLAIMS OR DISPUTED INTERESTS 11.01. Time Limit for Objections to Claims.

Payments. Payments, Distributions or treatment on account of a Disputed Claim or a Disputed Interest that ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim or an Allowed Existing Interest shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Plan with respect to the Class in which the Disputed Claim or an Allowed Existing Interest is classified. Such payments, Distributions or treatment shall be made as soon as practicable, but not more than, seven (7) Business Days after the date on which the order allowing such Claim or Interest becomes a Final Order. Distributions, payment or treatment made in accordance with this Article shall not include interest on the amount of any payment from the date on which the Holder of the Allowed Claim would have been entitled to receive payment, Distribution or treatment if its Claim or Interest had not been disputed.
