AV Receiver

[nelsonic]

We need an AV Receiver so that we can switch between Chromecast, Amazon FireTV (Stick) and PC on the Projector @DWYLHQ

• [x] Decent sound quality (but doesn't need to be "reference" quality, because let's face it our ears aren't used to linn levels of sound quality ...)
• [x] Min 2 HDMI Inputs
  • [x] Chromecast
  • [x] Amazon Fire TV
  • [x] Do we need a DVD/BlueRay Player?
  • [x] Do we need a Computer (direct connection) ?
• Ideally we would re-use our existing speakers to keep costs low, but I've found that many/most AV systems have "pre" output for the Subwoofer meaning we would need to get an "active" Sub...
• [x] BlueTooth connectivity so people can pair with their phones and listen to music?
