    May I ask why you put a capital letter in front of each word?

    As far as audio goes, if you have no complaints why do you want a 'substitute'?
    Nad make good AV receivers as far as I'm concerned, you should also look at the new 640R version 2 by Cambridge Audio which will be coming out very soon. It should boast most of the new HD formats.
    Other brands you want to consider are Denon Onkyo Yamaha Sony and Pioneer. They will carry most of the newer technology for a relatively small price.

    I'm trying to decide if that's more difficult to read than ALL CAPS. I think that it is.

    In the translation I've provided, you can more plainly see that he's looking for a new receiver because he wants HDMI.

    How did you do that?

    You're right, come to think of it it is a heck of a lot harder to read.

    I feel the NAD would be an upgrade in sound from the HK and definitely from the likes of a Sony, Pioneer or Yamaha. Those would be like punishing yourself for needing HDMI. I don't know how they compare in price but the new Rotel 1500 series receivers are supposed to be pretty good as well. I think you are on the right track by not only getting a more modern feature line up but to also go upstream in sound quality.

    Looks like you've chosen a good set up. Arcam had some decent receivers but I'm not sure if they are up to date with technology yet and they are also probably expensive. As far as performance for the dollar the NAD would be the one.

    There's An Option In Microsoft Word To Capitalize Each Word. Maybe The Original Post Was Capitalized With That Feature And Pasted In Here.
