Digital Receiver Opinions

Posted by Brian Robinson [IP: 212.211.25.20] on November 29, 1998 at 00:24:38:

I recently purchased a Mitsubishi VS50703 projection TV, Toshiba SD3108 DVD player, and Carver 5.1 theater speakers. Now I need a receiver that has Dolby digital and DTS. I've narrowed my search to 3 models: Yamaha RX-V795, Sony STR-DA30ESP (or 50ESP), and the Harman Kardan AVR65. The best prices I've found so far are $650, $600, and $749 respectively.

1. Any objective opinions on which is the best deal for the price and will fit well with the other pecies?
2. Anyone have information on the HK as to number and types of I/O? S-video?
3. Both the DVD and TV have component (3 jacks) video. Would this connection be the best? or S-Video?
4. Is the optical or coax best for the digital audio connections?
5. Are the $30+ interconnects worth the money, or is Stadard monster cable acceptable?
