I recently heard the new Denon Flagship receiver...the AVR5805 mkII, which is the biggest honkin' receiver I have ever seen! This montherfreaker is huge and has just about every input/output known to man. I wouldn't be surprised if this thing allows you to hook up a washer and dryer to it as well. It only weighs 92lbs too! If WWIII breaks out and we have nuclear war...the only things left will be Cher's nose and this thing! It does have HMDI 1080p and should be able to upconvert anything from what I understand. I was unable to get a good look at what was connected when I checked it out, but it appeared as though everything going in was component and there was 1 HDMI output...picture was stunning! It was THE LAST SAMURAI playing. I might be mistaken, but I think that it can only convert S-Video up to Component though. Don't quote me on that.
