Lexicon MC-8 - Component Video Switching
No, it means if you have a component signal you can pass it through the lexicon.Why anyone would put a video signal through all that uneccessary switching and noise is beyond me. Video should come out of the source and into the display, thats it. 
All HDMI system possilble yet?

Need some pre-amp advice...
I like the Krell and the 320S, check out the ARC Ref II Mk II as well. You should be able to find one used in that price point. Good Luck.

Genesis Digital lens used with a 24/196 Dac
