Hi all!
Brand new to the forum!
I currently have a 5.1 Onkyo system that's about 10 years old, so I am looking to upgrade to something a little newer. My current setup:
[*]42" Samsung HDTV
[*]Onkyo 5.1 Receiver (generic 5.1 receiver)
[*]Klipsch center, main and surround speaker
[*]PS3
[*]Roku
[*]Cable Box
[*]Klipsch subwoofer
[/list]
I like the sound of the speakers and all my products in the setup, but I am looking to run all HDMI cables to the receiver, out to the HDTV. My current receiver has no HDMI input/outputs, and I am looking to somewhat future-proof the setup a bit. So my requirements for a new receiver....
[*]HDMI ports (I assume I need one with passthrough - do I need 4k enabled passthrough?)
[*]Optical and coaxial audo inputs
[*]7.1 channels (if possible, and worth it)
[/list]
My budget is a bit modest, however. I am trying to keep it under or around $400-$500 total for the receiver. Any and all ideas are appreciated and welcome!
Thanks in advance for any help!
