I'm looking for a budget receiver that will sound decent with my current setup (I have a set of Infinity Primus HT set - 4" mini-bookshelfs and 8" sub). I narrowed down my selection to these 2 receivers (the price is exactly the same). They both can do audio and LPCM via HDMI but not TrueHD. I'm not interested in upconverting, swithing, iPods, sat radio.
Which one of these 2 would be a better choice?
My second question is if for my setup TrueHD decoding in the receiver vs the BD player would make a big difference. I'll get a BD sometime in the future, so I'd like my receiver to be somewhat "futureproof" but for the moment I can't justify the extra money. Would the LPCM feature be close enough to TrueHD, considering my speker setup?
Thanks!
