I've been doing some research on HTiBs and have run into a problem. I'm looking at refurbished units for about the $300 range and am stuck between two sides. I've read other places that Onkyos and Denons produce better sound quality than the average Sony or Samsung. There are some decently priced units on accessories4less.com and I was considering picking one up. My only problem is I've also heard these units have problems with HDMI video processing. I want to run a PS3 through the system and output it to the TV all through HDMI. This way I can take advantage of more audio formats and better audio quality. I've read that the Onkyo units have trouble with the video prcoessing through HDMI and sometimes have video cuts, delays, and overall sluggishness. This would completely ruin my setup. However, on the other hand, the Sony and Samsung units seem to have no problem with this HDMI video processing. I would like to know if anyone can suggest a well-priced unit that has good sound quality along with no HDMI video problems. Maybe there is a Samsung out there that has good sound quality? An Onkyo that has no problem processing an HDMI video signal? Either way, I want an affordable way to add a good sound system to my living room with the PS3 as the main hub.
