Harman Kardon AVR1600 50W X7, 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver for $313.49
So, since this was picked up on unnamed-deal-site-that-Erika-won't-name-because-she-is-banned-for-life I thought I would post it to be seen by my far more favored deal site people. Is it wrong to pick favorites so blatantly? If so, then let me be wrong. Sorry unnamed deal site!

It's a good price, but you won't get the HK factory 1 year warranty, so if it dies tomorrow you're probably out of luck. Plus, this only does Component to HDMI (Red, Green, Blue) conversion, so if you have composite (yellow) or S-video you're SOL... In that price range get one of these:

I have this amp and it does a wonderful job. Does a great job of switching my HDMI inputs.
@idrivea911: You are correct that this does not come with a one year warranty but you are not out of luck if it fails "tomorrow" since all of our items come with a 30 day guarantee.
electronics-expo has it for about the same price (if you do the "email me for a better price" thing). It was around $318 with free shipping when I did it. Full manufacturer's warranty.
I love my HK home theater... Granted this is the low end for HK, still the same quality as their high end stuff.
