Just thought I'd forward the fact that Yamaha just release all new RX-V_65 AV Receiver series
RX-V665 on Yamaha website
RX-V665 7.2-Channel Digital Home Theater Receiver
Fully compatible with HD audio and video. Featuring HD audio decoding, HDMI (4 in/ 1 out), 1080p video upscaling. Pure Direct, YPAO, Cinema DSP 3D and custom installation features.
MAIN FEATURES
Lots of great features on the unit would like to know what you all think about it...just pulled all the stuff from the Yamaha website today
So hopefully someone finds the answers to these questions...regarding the RX-V665
1. Does it pass BTB and WTW over HDMI?
2. Does it Matrix DD-TrueHD and DTS-MA?
3. Does it allow you to pick the crossover point before running the auto calibration?
4. What did they take out to reduce the weight by 8 pounds? Hopefully not the power supply!
5. Most importantly does it display DD-TrueHD and DTS-MA in large letters across the front display when bitstreaming those formats from a Blu-ray player?
6. Does it display volume information over the OSD?
7. Is the OSD an overlay?
