With all the changes to the HDMI standard, I’m not sure how much one should get excited about spending the fortune on a new receiver with the latest standard…but nonetheless, it’s still a pretty impressive receiver at a reasonable price.

At this $800 price point you won’t see an array of four HDMI inputs—there are just two HDMI inputs, and one HDMI output. Also missing is that coveted Silicon Optix chipset that does a kick-ass job of upscaling standard-definition video to 1080p. But still, we’re digging its 90 watts per channel into seven channels, onboard Ethernet, and its internal decoding for DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD, and Dolby Digital Plus, better to take advantage of Blu-ray and HD DVD audio goodness.
