What is the general opinion of the group? A lot of the advice on this forum says that at a given price point, most receivers from the main brands are close as far as performance - so we should go with the one that has the features that we desire. So, I am sort of developing a list of features that actually impact the performance of the receiver. Having said that, the independant crossover seems like a nice feature to have - but I don't know enough to know if it makes much of a difference. I was posting in another thread about the upscaling feature - it seems that the upscaling offered in today's receivers is early generation and may not be as good as can be had in the better video equipment.
