I don't have nor attend to buy a blue-ray player anytime soon.
My oppo dvd player has hdmi output but there's only one format that it doesn't play and it blue-ray. My tv set ( sharp aquost not 1080) has hdmi input too.
I don't want, right now, (finance doesn't permit to buy a high end processor), to pay high price just to have an hdmi input in case I eventually decide to buy a blue-ray player. And I don't want to go back to low end component too.If it ever happen(buying blue-ray player)(and I guess it will happen), few years from now, finance will permit to buy whatever processor I want or need.( no more mortgage or car payment (2 years to go!))
So right now I'm in the process to buy something better than my defective B&K reference 20 processor. (I can use it only for stereo, surround is not working anymore).
p.s. I can buy a blueray player for 99$. I can buy blue ray for 30 to 35, but dvd for less than 10. ( 3 movies for the price of one, many being children's movies.
