    Pioneer VSX56TXi HD switching?

    Hello,
    looking for opinions from Pioneer Elite 56TXi receivers (or similar): i need a receiver that can switch video sources including a true 1080i HD signal without degrading the quality of the HD video signal. I have always been happy with Pioneer products, and am considering the Elite VSX-56TXi. Any experienced opinions out there?

    My video monitor is a Toshiba and although it does have very nice picture quality, it is a pain in the bum to change video sources (other Toshiba owners will attest to this). So i am looking for a receiver to take care of all source switching. One current source is a true 1080i HD signal, and i would not want to degrade the stunning picture.

    Thank you for your opinions.

    John

    The Pioneer Elite 56TXi only switches component video. (MSRP of $1700)

    I'm not sure, but wouldn't DVI or HDMI (both digital) be better than component (analog) when it comes to switching?

    For example, here's the Marantz SR8500. (MSRP of $1599)

      my Pioneer 1014 switches component well. I am pretty sure that PBS HD has some 1080i show's that are amazing.
