I am about to purchase a 75" 4K TV and a DVD player and AV receiver. I have many blu ray DVDs that I would love to watch on this new system, so I am trying to understand 4K upscaling. If your DVD player has 4K upscaling, does a 4K TV also need 4K upscaling capability? If yes, why, if the DVD player has already upscaled the video signal, and the TV can already receive 4K signals? I understand that a blu ray DVD signal upscaled will not be as great as picture as a real 4K signal...
Does the AV receiver need to have 4K upscaling? I am assuming I will hook the DVD player output HDMI to the receiver, and the receiver will have one HDMI out to the TV. I think I will be getting a Marantz SR 6011 or 6012. I want to make the right purchases of TV and DVD player to get the best picture out of my old blu rays DVDs. I am also excited to use 4K sources whenever possible, of course!
Thanks!
