Hello, I am in the process of upgrading my reciever (from a Techniques SA-AX730)-this reciever is only pro-logic w. 6ch. input, but I am using a DVD player with a built in DD decoder, sending the decoded signal to my reciever. None of my other devices (such as x-box) can take advantage of Dolby Digital due to my reciever's limitations. Additionally, it has no component video input, so also only 1 device may use this type of video signal (straight to my TV). I do realize it is best to put it straight to the TV, however I would prefer to be able to switch it on the reciever since I have multiple devices capable of outputting the signal. Aside from the video I want a reciever that can accept a S/PDIF signal from my laptop, as well as a FEW optical inputs from other devices. My budget is pretty low, like $300 +/- a few dollars. My question is: Based on the reciever I have, should I:
a) Buy a new reciever and solve all my problems, and if so which one?
b) Find a separate Dolby Digital decoder as well as a component video switcher and integrate that into my existing system?
c) Find some other solution that I don't know about-if so PLS HELP!
*Note- I am satisfied with the actual performace of my reciever, even though it's not the best, the only reason I'm switching is for the features*
Thanks!
