I have an Lexicon MC-1 and a McIntosh 7205. TO be honest I want to get rid of them and get an all in one receiver, will any all in one match these two pieces?

Regards

    If you're looking for a one box solution and can live without a tuna, look into a nice high end integrated amp.

    I'm just annoyed that the lexicon has no component inputs.

    Perhaps a pre/pro would be the answer then.

    The closest you might get to that combo you have now would be the Carver/Sunfire Receiver. It's a great piece, though I have never listened to one.

    To be honest you wouldn't gain much, as far as space is concerned, over what you have now.

    component inputs? man, don't add your processor into the circuit. plug your source directly into your TV.

    But what if he has a DVD, LD, VHS +. Does that mean he has to switch cables everytime he switches sources??? Or does he only then have to change the source on the process AND his video?


    I have multiple sources and wouldn't think about plugging them into anything but my 4800. Then all I have to do is hit one single button on one remote vs two or more the way you stated.

    if you have to do it then yes, but if u dont have to then dont. not many people have a dvd, ld and vhs that all need component outputs.

    Have you considered a remote controlled component video switcher. With some of today's programable remotes, you could just press one button and it would switch the input on the receiver and component video switch box.

    Or you could just get a new pre-amp that has it built in and give you old setup to me.

    Here is the problem:

    Home Theater PC is component, Cable BOX is HD (component), DVD player is component. I only have 2 component in's on my television, all critical components, all part of the problem.
