To a certain extent no, your not.. The main power source of an amp is the transformer/capacitors... A transformer is basically a coil of copper wire, the larger the transformer the stronger the amp can be.... better quality, well that can be another story...


What features are you wanting? I do not have any HDMI in my current system. In a way i am in the same position you are.. I am thinking that will get a HDMI switcher to take advantage of the new video stuff when i had a display that can take advantage of it...

I may get this HDMI switcher, when the time comes.

I have talked to some people that have said that the monoprice hdmi switchers are actually of pretty good quality.

Others know a considerable amont more about receivers than myself.
