you really have to think about what you are typing, you say who cares about what it sounds like, da, its main function is its sound, also , it has component inputs, try taking the time to look at krell's websight, the specs are right there.

i spent alot of time looking at Krell's website, and did not see any component video inputs/outputs on the HTS 1, nor dor I recall any mention of component video inputs/outputs in the plethora of Krell HTS's advertised for sale at Audiogon. But this is the standard...few HT processor/preamp/controller manufacturers bother to get into the details of the video processing/conversion/switching efficiencies of their gear...like say, how much of the signal is attenuated in the pass-thru.in fact, i find it odd that the single most important function of a HT piece is how it handles the video...and yet, all anyone wants to talk about is the audio. Audio is not important in home theater--it's a complete waste of resources.
the most recent research to discover how the human brain handles audio and video information supports my claim that video takes priority over audio when both are present.
need proof...
try driving a car while talking on you cell phone--you can only do one thing well...you either aren't driving, or you aren't listening.
but that's too dangerous...so try this
try watching a live tv broadcast of the World Trade Towers being hit by a jetliner, and listening to you boss talking on the phone...
game, set, match. you're fired.
I OWNED both the hts 1 and the 7.1, both have video switching, component inputs and outputs !
