Your AV Receiver sends the correct signal to your TV and speakers depending on what you want to see and hear, with the press of only a single button on a single remote. Plus the replacement of all those analog video and audio cables with a single, digital HDMI cable means a lot less wires, perfect, clear digital 7.1 discreet channels of sound, and perfect picture. You'll love it.
