Sure, George, ignore the hdmi.
Keep the audio and video functions purely seperate. A unit that handles video is inherently subject to trade-offs in the audio dept.
Walmart sells shoes and toasters. Neither the footwear or the appliance are of a standard of quality that I would strive for, but may have to settle for.
Do you want to settle? |

George, if you want the best audio, keep the video on it's own. |

"I want more HDMI inputs."
Yeesh! Sounds rather petulant there, GR. $13k for more inputs? Ever heard of a switch box?
So, what are the alternatives? What other products have you considered if you don't buy the McIntosh? Why the Mac? What are you coming from now? What have you been using and is this change being made strictly for more HDMI inputs? You do realize in a few years HDMI, as it is currently marketed, will be as obsolete as S-video or progressive inputs are right now; don't you? That's how this industry works. You'd be better off buying a new TV every few years.

George, if you dropped 13k on gear with the advice of online forums, I would drive there and slap you myself.Or bring my wife.
How would you rate your relationship with your dealer? |
