Don't know about the Passion receiver so can't help you in that sense, but the Technomate line of receivers are brilliant mainly because they are easily patched and do produce an excellent picture.

I have had the TM6900HD since it came out and it is still (in my opinion) the best you can get. There are a few irritating design flaunts such as no USB on the back but only on the front under the lid and the UI is not the best in the world.

Again, I don't know anything about the Passion HD receiver you mention, but I can warmly recommend the TM6900 (or any other Technomate receivers). No I don't work for Technomate ha ha ha...
