Many good A/V amps have component and svideo switching abilities if you route your video through your amp. Just pointing it out because most ppl looking for a switch have a home cinema setup and simply overlook this neat ability many amps have.

You are very correct. I know of very few people that actually use their amp to switch video, just sound. I have everything going to my amp.

I 3rd the recommendation. What kind of budget do you have? Yamaha 661 / HTR 6060 is a good place to start.
