I have the Marantz NR1501 Slim Line Home Theater Receiver, it has three HDMI 1.3 ports, do you think it work with 3D? Or I need to upgrade my receiver?

Thanks.
 
3D was introduced in 1.4.

Processing 3D, 1.4, is expensive compared to 1.3; most 1.3 hardware will never support 1.4, due to the physical limitations of the hardware, with the exception of something like a PS3 which has all the power it needs and simply required a firmware update.
 
It will work fine with frame compatible 3D (ESPN 3D) but will not work with 3D Blu-ray.
 
It wont pass through. I have the same issue with my Yamaha RX-3800. If I plug my PS3 into my yamaha it wont detect my 3d samsung. If I plug from the ps3 to the samsung everything is fine. I hate HDMI lol.
 
It will pass through frame compatible 3D - Xbox 360 games or cable TV broadcasts.
