I looked at the pioneer I am pretty set on those daytons and I have some speakers already to mix and match if the daytons are GREAT mainly getting it for the sub.. but what model sony? and does it do what I asked? hdmi? 5.1? or just shoot me the model # so I can look it up and price for it? my boss gave me his KLH which is nice but no hdmi.. 5x100watts @ 8

So, 200 for the receiver?

Yes.. I figure it should get me a pretty good receiver as I can spend that much new and get what I want on a mid/lower model.. Now I people have speakers to throw in for a cheap price I would take a look but as that would up shipping substantially I will probably just go with PE for those

No HDMI, Model # is STR-DE525. Honestly its from like 1999 So its pretty old. It still works and everything. I just found a great deal for a Denon so thats been collecting dust for a while. Just let me know.

nah man.. already have a receiver that does everything MINUS hdmi and as I just bought a 46" 1080p lcd I want to have good input and good sound aswell

No problem. I'll try my luck on CL and see if i can get someone that doesn't know any better to buy it. I'll tell em it'll make his system "bump and hit hard" lol

Its not just hdmi you need, you need an hdmi switching receiver. IMO if you get a receiver with just "pass thru" its pointless.

i kind of agree here.

my onkyo was a pita to set up, needing a seperate output from the source to be connected to it, as it did not decode and remove the audio stream from HDMI.

Yeah, it took me forever to figure out wtf the difference was between them. Then when you finally do its like why did they do that, and why do they even call it what they do. It makes ZERO sense to use an hdmi cable if it can't pass both sound, and video.
