Saturday Mar 4, 2006 c|net Denon AVR-4306 A/V receiver (black)
The good: Incredibly well-featured 7.1-channel receiver; excellent sound quality; three HDMI inputs; converts analog video to HDMI output; upconverts analog video to 720p/1080i HD resolution;

but will it pass HDMI (dig) trough to a computer call Denon at 973/396-0810.

The bad: Expensive; intimidating complexity may put off home-theater newbies; no built-in decoding for next-gen HD-DVD and Blu-ray audio formats; no HD Radio.

: The bottom line: The Denon AVR-4306 offers the best combination of cutting-edge features and superb sound quality of any receiver that we've ever tested. $1500 to 2000 more

Sony SDP-E800 Dolby Digital surround proc $499us sale $125 1997 Weaknesses: HEAT, lack of DTS, lack of bass management, merely acceptable S/N ratio

Some DVDs feature multiple surround formats--for example, Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital, and DTS--on a single disc. This brings up another angle to the surround story; to enjoy the full sound potential of, say, a DTS-ES-encoded DVD, you need a receiver that processes DTS-ES. In other words, formats exist in both software and hardware. Other formats, such as Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS Neo:6, are found only on hardware--receivers, HTIBs, DVD players, and so on--and are applied to processing software or music sources, such as CDs, DVDs, MP3 files, and radio.
