I assume this is what you want to do:

Run DVD video to TV
Run DVD audio to rec'r
Run cable box video to TV
Run cable box audio to rec'r

If that is right, you have no need for HDMI switching.

I suggest Pio 1016 for bang/buck ratio. For under $380 at Onecall.com it is tough to beat for features and sound quality. Google that one or check avsform. There are also several different HK's, Onk's, and Yammy's in the sub $500 bracket that will meet/exceed your needs. Happy shopping
Yo NCX/K...you got it there, my friend. As usual, you were able to
decipher your ol'Uncle's ramblings, .

I'm just trying to be careful and not screw up, what is now, a fookin
great pic and, to get some better sound, (espc. ctr channel), and
drive some speakers on our FLA shack lanai porch thing. And, I didn't
wanna pop big dough for a rec. that did differential equations when
all I needed was arithmetic.

My sys. back on the mtn, while "old", runs like a top, it's all connected
and I do not screw with it.

Thanks, K...


And, thanks to Vig, too! I will check out the sites, though I'm
Yama conditioned from what I have/know, back on the Mtn set-up.
Cheers, all and
Best Regards,
OlUncMtr
