the specs say s-video, component, hdmi so i m not sure if it really does it for all 3.
so i connect to 663 via the component, upscale via hdmi to lcd.

yes that is correct but its not call upscaling which is another thing altogether. its call upconversion
upscaling means changing for eg. 480 to 720/1080

The Yamaha receiver that do upscale:-

RX-V661/663 - upconversion to component only

RX-V861 - up-scale all analog to max 1080i
RX-V863 - up-scale all analog to max 1080p

RX-V1700 - up-scale all analog to max 1080i
RX-V1800/V3800/Z-11 - up-scale all analog to max 1080p

I think u can get V1700 for ard 2.5k now

RX-V663 provides analogue video to HDMI digital upconversion (composite video <-> S-Video <-> component video -> HDMI)

I think RM3.6k is speakers only.  For that price or a little more, can get brands like Mission, Monitor Audio, etc...

here is the link but there is one more somewhere - http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/receivers...v-receiver.html

true, not many movies support 7 channels but if we bought a 7 channel AVR at a certain watt price range, then it better give out that much. just my 2 cent. sorry ya....

if its not an issue then better get 663. no point going for 1800 or higher since you wont need all those wattage
