The Bottom Line	The Pioneer VSX-72TXV's winning combination of cutting-edge features and audiophile sound quality are hard to beat, but its HDMI features fall just a hair short.	The Pioneer VSX-1019AH-K delivers an excellent feature set and outstanding sound quality for its price, making it our top midrange AV receiver pick so far.	The Denon AVR-4306 offers the best combination of cutting-edge features and superb sound quality of any receiver that we've ever tested.	If you can overlook its poor analog video conversion, the Onkyo TX-SR607 offers up a ton of HDMI connectivity and excellent sound quality for a midrange AV receiver.	The Sony STR-DN1000 offers solid sound and basic AV receiver features at a bargain price, but it's not nearly as good as last year's STR-DG920.
