So I just picked up a new Anthem MRX-500 to Replace my aging Onkyo with Faraouja processing.
I'm far from a Videophile. I'm on the audio side. However the second I hooked this Anthem up I was completely unimpressed with the video processing. The only acceptable picture for me is if I put it in Through mode. With the processing on it seems to make everything blocky, especially blacks.
I'm throwing around the idea of keeping the Anthem, since I like everything else about it, and going with a video processor. Personaly I think it's a bit ridicilous that a $1600 receiver has such bad video processing but hey.
I know nothing about the video world though. Can I get something worth wild for under a grand? I really don't want to spend anymore than that.
Cheers guys.
