I've looked all over the site, but my ignorance is hindering my ability to understand which receiver I need.
Anyway, just recently bought a new house and am trying to get my home theater set up. I've got an old Sony receiver that doesn't have the features I need (HDMI, possibly CPU in, other stuff that I don't understand)
My basic setup is:
Klipsch Quintet Speakers
Klipsch Synergy 10 Subwoofer
Sony PS3
Sony 46" 1080 LCD TV
Directv HD-DVR
I had my builder run some pipe in the walls from the receiver location to the tv location for that clean look (so basically I'd like to run just one hdmi cable from the receiver to the tv).
I've also got speaker wire running from the receiver location to two speakers on the back porch, so I want something that can run power to those speakers as well.
The PC-In thing looks like something that I would use.
Anyway, I apologize in advance for the incompetecny. Can someone recommend a reciever between the $400 - $900 range. I was looking at the Onkyo 607/707/807 and liked the features of the 807, but maybe someone can give me a different point of view or tell me what I need for my set-up.
I appreciate any advice and please keep in dumbed down for my sake.
