OK....I've been totally out of the loop on these for the past 7yrs or so. I've had my Direct-Tv for about 7 yrs and have not upgraded since. I think I have like a second generation Sony receiver....and prolly a first generation RCA. I'm happy with the Sony which is in my primary viewing area, but the RCA, which is in my primary listening area kind of sucks....really sucky-assed menu system and really slow. It also only has analog audio outputs, hence my next question. I'm assuming these things haveta have DAC's in them and I'm also assuming this RCA (one of the originals) most likely has some really outdated ones. So can someone kinda update me on these newer receivers? I don't care about HDTV and component video and P-4 cards and shit like that. I mainly want something with a faster menu system , analog and digital coax outputs for audio and some decent DAC's in case I wanna stick with analog out. I will be mainly using this for listening to the digital music channels. I will probably be looking at buying a used one off of ebay or something. Anyway...any suggestions on particular models I should be looking at?? Thanks!
