HK has dissapointed me really bad. First with that 7300 fiasco and second with the DVD 47 which will not pass proper audio using HDMI. Their firmware update for the 47 is 9 months late. Go figure. I have since gotten rid of all of my HK Gear and am now quite happy with this 2807 and my xbox hd-dvd setup. I have a cheapo LG upconverting dvd player which works great with hdmi at 1080i. I am quite content for the time being. I am waiting for Denon to release a hd-dvd dvd player with sacd etc...so we will see when they jump on that bandwagon.

Thanks.

ps. I too am considering the good ole analog spl meter and a tape measure at this point.
