    Hi
    I have sold my old yamaha receiver with no hdmi and now looking to buy one with hdmi
    my requirements are:

    5.1 for tannoy speakers and sub
    require one cable to tv from different inputs of hdmi, composite/component
    should be able to handle hd audio, so need one cable from blu-ray to av receiver
    if possible to allow video when av receiver is off (pass through i guess) - optional

    can someone please suggest which is the cheapest receiver in market which can go well with my speakers

    i watch a lot of tv and movies on my 46" LCD

    have a look at the AVRecievers section on Richersounds. For €210, I'd read the specs but it seems to do the works.

    this yamaha one does not decode hd audio i guess
    blu ray has to decode it before sending

    Yeah - LPCM is where it's at, all the high end kids are doing it, so you can too.

    HD Audio Bitstreaming is only for LED/display fetishists. My amp is in a cupboard so I don't care whether the player or amp decodes it as I won't see the light either way.

    You'll just have to make sure the player can send Multichannel LPCM.
