I don't really understand the difference between V1.3 Repeater & V1.3 Pass Through HDMI on a receiver, so help me out.

Repeater passes both video and audio.

Pass through passes video only.

i believe that generally on higher end recievers will pass video and audio or be "repeaters".

lower end recievers just pass through video
