mmmm. My HTPC needs a lot more work then my A/V setup. If I were to start shopping, I am sure the STR_DA3300ES would be on the top of my receiver list. It pretty much has all the specs you could want from a receiver including portable music player support, spiffy TV UI, HDMI 1.3, upconvert, downcovert, sideconvert, and a host of other features.

The STR-DA3300ES is a 7.1-channel AVR with 100-watts x 7 (8 ohms); three HDMI 1.3 inputs; accepts 1080p/60 and 1080p/24 HD signals; upconversion of video sources to 1080p via HDMI; deinterlacing and video processing by Faroudja; down-conversion of video (including HD over component); support for 7.1-channel linear PCM over HDMI; auto speaker calibration; inputs for optional Sirius and XM tuners; a powered second-zone with audio and video capability; three 12-volt trigger inputs; RS-232 control; two remote controls (one big, one small); and a Digital Media Port for optional Sony accessories that will connect the AVR with streaming music sources, iPods, and etc. On the iPod front, once connected the iPod’s menu data populates the AVR’s on-screen menus, which is pretty cool.
