JVC introduces new receivers...with HDMI

Normally new audio video receivers would not warrant a post at HD Beat, but when they feature HDMI ports, they do. JVC is introducing two new entry-level receivers that both have two HDMI inputs and start out at $500. They also managed to cram Faroudja DCDi video processing into the receivers to improve the picture for lower quality inputs, as well as a USB interface for sharing MP3s from computers.

It really is a good day to see new products that are embracing the benefits of HDMI at an affordable price.
