Are there any other receivers coming out in the near future besides the Onkyo that have HDMI 1.3 and dts mater audio decoding?
Anyone considering the new receivers (particularly the Onkyos) that have HDMI 1.3 and advanced lossless decoding should read dblbogey7's latest post here: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/494479 By "future models" I think he's referring to HD players that will have this feature enabled. One of these could be the upcoming Sony BDP-S500.
We just purchased a new Cool Sat 7100 PVR satellite receiver. We've had it for 1 week. It seems to be doing okay.
