I am considering getting the 1098 and pairing it with a Rotel amp. However I noticed it doesn't support HDMI inputs. I know HDMI is somewhat a moving target, but I am worried about springing several thousand for a pre and not being able to have it drive forthcoming uncompressed audio streams from an HD-DVD or BR player.
I am not worried about video switching since I don't want the video scaled by the Rotel, I trust the AVMII in my Fujitsu plasma much more.
So is there any kind of proprietary digital link on the Rotel that will enable digital lossless transfer of HD-DTS streams in the future (using some compatible Rotel player?)..
Or should I look somewhere else?
