The new receiver has ARC sound (our busted one doesn't) and the TV has an ARC HDMI port, so one less wire in the rat's nest behind the TV. Plus, the LG "Magic Remote" is compatible with the new Onkyo receiver, so I can ditch a remote.
Thanks for the suggestions all. You guys are a treasure.

What Onkyo receiver are you snaggin?

Nice receiver.

But no 'tape monitor' switch?
