The Sony STR-DG2100 7.1 Channel Receiver allows 1080p 24hz (fps) pass through, so owners of Toshiba's 1080p24 HD DVD players can now enjoy 24fps and PS3's can use the "auto" selection (instead of "on" forced) and still get the same benefit of 24fps through a receiver. Also, nice for owners of Toshiba's HD DVD XA2 or A35 (and some Blu-ray players) is the inclusion of Dolby+, Dolby TrueHD and dts-HD Master Audio for, IMO, a great improvement in sound with these formats (as opposed to having them decoded in their players). Of course, soon more Blu-ray and HD DVD players will allow these high performance features to be even more beneficial. In the meantime this new Sony receiver offers improvements in switching over, say, the STR-DG1000, like being able to easily listen to FM radio (or other audio source) while watching a movie or TV show and NOT causing the unit to try to switch HDMI video, which usually results in havoc. Also, if you just want FM/AM radio, this new receiver cycles through just those and excludes XM and Sirius (unless you want to add them, of course, as they are available), which results in less unnecessary cycling - nice touch. At a little over 30-lbs this receiver feels well constructed, but not obese. Finally, This receiver delivers a fully enveloping sweet and airy sound that benefits from it's rating of 100-watts per channel. Even so, it is fairly efficient requiring only about 350-watts power allowing it to run much cooler and is definitely more eco-conscience then most of the popular receivers currently offered. So, now I can leave it on more often and feel less guilty. I really love mine, nice job Sony!
