Re: New HT receiver with full HDMI
In this price range, the Yamaha RX-V663 would also make a good choice though it only comes w/ 2 HDMI inputs while providing 100Mhz component video switching (vs 50Mhz on the Onkyo 606). FWIW, the Yamaha also offers pre-out (in case you ever want to use it as a prepro w/ better, separate power amp(s)) plus DSD decoding (for SACD playback via HDMI), which I don't believe the Onkyo does.
You can find the Yamaha for ~$400 (or under) in various places online. In fact, I (and another HTF member) recently bought one off eBay for ~$350 shipped from an authorized dealer (w/ solid feedback rating on eBay).
