As for sources I would probally just use my xbox, and dvd player.



You don't need digital outputs from the receiver only digital in.

Something you might want to consider would be a receiver that has analog inputs and outputs for all 6.1 or 7.1 channels, this would allow you to use the receiver as a preamp and then add a seperate power amplifier later if you so desired, but this is now getting into a whole other post.

The HTR6040 will work very nicely if it suits your needs.
