... Setup Setup was as straight forward as it can be when introducing a new receiver into your system...
... The only complication was using an HDMI to DVI cable between the Mac Mini and the receiver...

... After everything was routed we ran the Pioneer auto calibration to tune the room...
... Most mid range and up receivers have some form of auto calibration...

... Video Nowadays, receivers are also about video...
... The 94TXH has a Faroudja video scaler built into it and it will perform video switching for you...
... The issue we had with it was that receiver would not upconvert 1080i or 720p source material to 1080p...
... Odds and Ends The 94TXH has some extras that don't cost extra...
... It comes complete with an iPod cable which allows you to listen and watch your content on your TV through the receiver...
... We didn't spend too much time with this because we had a Mac Mini connected to the receiver...
... Conclusion Overall, Ara liked the receiver enough to bump his current receiver to the family room...
... Four HDMI inputs make the 94TXH a very capable HDMI switch...
... We were a bit disappointed that the receiver would not scale a 1080i or 720p signal to 1080p and that we couldn't find a way to get our 480i signal via HDMI to scale to 1080p...
... The 94TXH has some extras that don't cost extra...

... The first is to transmit the native audio bitstream over HDMI and let your receiver do the decoding...
... In that instance, your receiver's front panel should light up with an indication of which codec it has received...
... Although you won't see a "TrueHD" or "DTS-HD" indicator light up on your receiver, there should be no loss in quality from decoding the audio in the disc player rather than in the receiver...
