That's a lot of dough. This looks to me as if it's only marketed to high-end home theater enthusiasts. I have a mid-range Marantz SR8400, and I've been thinking about upgrading to an HDMI 1.3 switching receiver, and the new 1.3 passing Onkyo is only several hundred dollars more than the cost of this switch. It could be very useful, though, if you have a classic amp or if you have high-end gear that costs big bucks, too much to replace, but doesn't have HDMI switching. For me though, I'm saving up until I can afford a new HDMI 1.3 receiver]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MDB]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2007 9:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HMS-41 auto-HDMI switch: 1.3a and Simplay HD certified... not that it matters]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/the-hms-41-auto-hdmi-1-3-switcher-is-simplay-hd-certified/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/the-hms-41-auto-hdmi-1-3-switcher-is-simplay-hd-certified/</guid><description><![CDATA[and this is better than monoprice's cheaper options because?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick Lyon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2007 10:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HMS-41 auto-HDMI switch: 1.3a and Simplay HD certified... not that it matters]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/the-hms-41-auto-hdmi-1-3-switcher-is-simplay-hd-certified/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/the-hms-41-auto-hdmi-1-3-switcher-is-simplay-hd-certified/</guid><description><![CDATA[Don't you know. iPhone is the new HDMI.

I believe I can make up for that, however, by adding that HD DVD and Blu Ray do not support content of that bit depth, and neither does the telecine equipment used by hollywood to digitize films in the first place.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adam Daniel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2007 3:07PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
