First I'll tell you my current home theater setup.

Receiver: Yamaha HTR-5150
TV:Panasonic 53" widescreen + Progressive Scan DVD
Front Speakers: JBL Northridge Series N38
Middle Speaker: Paradigm CC70
Back Speakers: Boston VRS
Sub: Yamaha SW60

I use my reciever about 70% time for movies and about 30% for video games. I really don't listen to music.

I bought the Yamaha 4 years ago, and it has served me well. However, I don't have experience with other brands to compare it to.

The 1050 interests me, but it seems a little dated and doesn't include any more surround formats than my current receiver, other than the 6.1. Has anyone used a yamaha receiver the same or similar to mine? How does it compare to the 1050? Is the sound quality any better? Would it be worth my money to upgrade, or should I stay with what I have?

Any advice would be appreciated.
