In between Rotel and Lexicon is Anthem. They have pre/pro's that accept PCM 5.1. Cambridge Audio has receivers that accept analog 7.1.
Arcam? Niiiice, but too rich for my blood.
Here's the master list of Blu-Ray players.
Master List Of Blu-ray Players
Most of the current standalones (except Sony, Panasonic and Philips
) will decode TrueHD and send it out of multichannel analog ports.
IMHO, if you really need this wait for the Panasonic BD-50, so you can send DTS-HD MA out of your analog ports as well (in addition to Dolby TrueHD).

Not an Anthem fan.

It's heavy!
The set-up was fairly easy and while I'm still fine tuning, it sounds amazing. We watched Across The Universe again last night, and there was a noticeable difference from the first time we watched last weekend.
The big thing was a more detailed seperation in the channels. Much more definition than my previous amp. Springsteen's new CD was awesome in two channel playback. I spent some time this afternoon listening to the radio station I work for. It sounds better here, than with all our stuff in our studios!
We're going to watch something noisey tomorrow and give it a good workout.
