Really? Then what is the logic in purchasing a $3k audio processor from meridian? IIUC it is then only separating out the audio and video and allowing me to run to my G68 via coax. Or does the 621 do other processing after it receives the six or eight channels of decoded music. Sorry maybe I'm just not getting it.

The logic is to get high res digital into your processor rather than analogue.

As well as audio upsampling (and possibly / probably apodising) and dejittering there is also video dejittering.
