Sony STR-DG810 6.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I got this for it's HDMI switching capability. It does this well and that's a welcome accomplishment for $300 at this point in time.

Sony STR-DA3400ES 7.1 Channel AV Receiver Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)It's nice to be able to switch up to 4 HDMI components and have only one HDMI cable going to your TV carrying the audio and video signals.

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)After our old receiver died, we looked around for a replacement in the sub-$500 range.

Denon AVR-1709 7.1-Channel Multi-Zone Home Theater Receiver Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Think of hookup this way: The HDMI basically carries only video to this receiver.
