Spec me an AV amplifier/reciever

Hi,

I'm about to upgrade my ageing panny LCD to a brand new Bravia and figured I'd finally pull my finger out and get an AV amp so I can have some sweet 7.1 surround to go with the new TV.

I've got speakers already sorted, so just need the AV amp. Budget is £300, will be used with xbox360, Sky+ and a Wii.

Anyone got any suggestions? I Was looking at the Onkyo TX-SR506, but according to the blurb it has "no HD audio support", does this mean I couldn't have the 360 outputting at 1080p running through it?

Any advice would be much appreciated,

Cheers,

Fred

Denon AVR1909

And you can get that Onkyo for under £200 (though I daren't say where on this forum).
