Thanks for the Info Dan. The reason I was going for the Onkyo was I get a sweet deal and they don't sell Yamahas there. Half of this stuff I don't understand. I wan't to make sure the receiver will pass through 1080P/24 with out changing my screen size which I have read the Onkyo's tend to do. My Toshiba A-30 doesn't support lossles Audio so it seems I may be buying an A-35 that does through HDMI (get that cheap too).

What's up with the 120Hz refrersh rate. (thought that was a TV setting) Also with upconverting will this be done twice once by the player and then again by the receiver or does it just pass through?(Setting Maybe?)
Sorry brand new to this type of receiver and the more I read the more confusing it becomes.
