My Yamaha HTR-6030 (yes, really) just lost its center channel. Or at least I can't get it to work.
Nevertheless, I wouldn't mind a receiver with HDMI inputs.
We have really simple (and old) needs.

We have really simple (and old) needs.
- RCA line in for our preamp for the turntable
- RCA line in for CD player
- Multi channel inputs for the 5.1 multi-channel output on my motherboard (minijack PC to coax receiver)
- anything else would simply need to be about 5 HDMI inputs for other video devices. These are all for nothing higher than 1080p. No UHD. Why only 1080? Our TV can do 4K but rarely if ever are the sources we watch ever higher than 1080p.
- No special audio above 5.1 but I would like to finally be able to play EAC3 and DTS-HD without converting all the time.
- Can someone recommend whether I should get an older used receiver or recommend one that's new but for close to $200 CAD?
- If a used older one is better for me, what brand, specs am I looking for? What should I pay attention to or ask the owner? Age? Condition? Receipt?
