I want a reciever with hdmi 2.0. I can't find information about what version hdmi recievers have.

Do only the more expensive models have it or do all?

Thanks.

They start from around £200 mate

Best to also look at the manufacturers website for more detailed specification.

What budget do you have?

Do you really mean HDMI 2 or are you really after HDCP 2.2? Only the newest 2015 models have HDCP 2.2 and they all seem to start at £500.

Edit - apart from Onkyo which had HDCP 2.2 last year.

I want 60hz over HDMI, looks like I might need HDCP 2.2 then.

So this one:

What does HDCP 2.2 do?

Its copy protection for UltraHD 4K

Edited my post, though I would read up rather than asking.

The latest Denon's are worth a look. They have the HDCP2.2 HDMI 2 4k@60p passthrough as well as the new Dolby Atmos / DTS-X decoders.

Denon AVRX1200W - single HDMI output £399
Denon AVRX2200W - dual HDMI outputs £499

Just upgraded to 4k TV and went with the 2200 avr, just watched 'Gravity' blu-ray using 5.1.2 for the Atmos soundtrack and it's just amazing. But the 1200 is the cheapest avr I know of with all the bells and whistles for 4k along the new formats.
