av receiver

Audio/video receiver (AVR)
An audio/video receiver (AVR) is a consumer electronics unit used in a home theater.
Its primary purpose is to receive audio and video signals from a number of sources and process them to drive loudspeakers and a display.
Possible displays include, television, monitor, or video projector while the inputs may come from, television, satellite receiver, radio, DVD players, Blu-ray Disc players, VCRs, and video game consoles.
The AVR source signal and other settings, including volume, are normally set by a remote controller.

It's dated 2009 and does not have HMDI ARC although this was the same year ARC was introduced (I thought I'd mention that just in case someone happens to ask). Anyway, my plan is to use it in a retro gaming scenario...
