I have a Marantz SR5010 and am wanting to upgrade. I'd like to get something with full HDMI 2.1 but we're still waiting on those to release it seems. My main question is do I go with another Marantz or similar AV Receiver, or buy separate AV Processor and AMP? So far all I've been able to find are $2000+ processors, Like Emotiva's XMC-2 which is $3000. Are there not cheaper processors around? I'd love to buy a decent amp like Emotiva's XPA-7, then only have to upgrade the processor when a new HDMI spec or feature come out. I'm hoping they're out there and someone can just point them out to me.
