Ok, I'm looking to able to get the most out of BR Audio and Audio in general.
I use my PS3 for Movies, and I don't think my current reciever can give me what I want.
The receiver I currently have is: SONY STR-K900
It came with this HTIB: http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=11035125
This is what Receiver will be powering:
Center: POLK CS1
Fronts: POLK Monitor 40
Surround: POLK Monitor 30
Subwoofer: Acoustic Audio HD-SUB12 12"
This is the equiment I have:
Comcast HD Cable Box: HDMI
Playstation 3: HDMI
Xbox360 (old model) + HDDVD addon: Component + Optical
Now from what I gather I don't really need a Receiver that decodes de fancy HD Audios and stuff, since the PS3 and alot of Bluray players can decode it, I can get by with a cheaper receiver that can do LCPM, they sound quality will be the same as the fancier receiver.
So here are some choices I've put together:
Sony STR-DH700 $234.55
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-STR-DH700-Channel-Receiver-Black/dp/B001TCML9Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1241049054&sr=1-1
Onkyo TX-SR576 $299
http://www.amazon.com/Onkyo-TX-SR576-Channel-Theater-Receiver/dp/B0016HNVD4
Onkyo TX-SR606 $300ish for Factory Reconditioned

YAMAHA RX-V565 $329 Usually at this sale price at newegg
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882115195
Now what worries me a bit about the Onkyo is that they seem to have some Buzzing problem with the PS3 due to the Audyssey's room correction technology????
So what do you guys recommend for me?
