Hi everyone, and thanks for reading and replying.
I have an Sony STR-K670P that I've been using for over 15 years now. As a gamer, I've been getting by using the single S/PDIF input on it for surround sound, but my old receiver has finally met its match... the Nintendo Switch. Though I've tried a couple HDMI --> HDMI + Audio adapters, I haven't been able to get more than 2 channels out of the Switch and into the old Sony, so it's time, finally, to upgrade to a receiver that actually has HDMI inputs.
Money is a concern, so I would like to continue using the 5.1 speakers that came with the old receiver, if possible. My new receiver should be able to utilize those old speakers, and I'm also hoping it will have some kind of output that could connect to surround sound headphones (currently own a logitech G35, but that's a USB set, so I understand if I have to buy a different type of surround sound headphones to connect to the new receiver). Finally, the new receiver should have at least 6 HDMI inputs. Any recommendations for a guy on a strict budget?
Thanks again!
