Hi All
I currently have my TV, DVD and Sky hooked up to my hi-fi via the RCA outputs/inputs but would really like to take advantage of the HDMI technology available. I use a Marantz PM6002 Amp/CD6002 combo at the moment and am shortly adding a PS3 to the list of components I use and would really like to optimise the sound and picture I have.
I have never used a receiver before and am a little concerned that, from a music perspective, I may lose some of the quality sound I enjoy from my existing setup if I ditch the amp/cd and go for a home cinema set up. I have no prior knowledge of the strengths/weaknesses of receivers over amps etc but would appreciate any views.
In addition what's a decent receiver to use - I don't want to spend more than 500 pounds (if that) so would appreciate comments etc.
Cheers
Paul
