The primary reason is that many of the components inside are big, such as heat sinks and capacitors. Also, cooling is very important so they don't enclose the componets in small boxes that would trap the heat.
Most people remember the days of pre amps, tuners, and amps. A receiver is just all of that stuff combined into one big box. Now most of the receivers these days have added video switching to the mix also. so you can take the audio and video from the cable box and DVD player into the receiver then have just one video cable up to the tv.
Multi-Zone in home theater receivers means that the receiver can send a second source signal to a separate audio system or speakers.
Video is picture and audio is the sound. Home theater receivers have RCA composite or component, S-Video or HDMI for the video input, and RCA analog, Toslink (optical) or coaxial inputs for digital audio.
With analog cable and receivers, no. With the use of HD cable receivers, the first sign of a bad splitter is audio dropouts. You should check to make sure that the splitter is rated for a bandwidth of at least 900MHz for digital cable. Changing out the splitter is very easy and cheap, so you should try to replace it and see if the problem goes away.
Most modern televisions have at least a headphone output so even if there is no dedicated audio line output, the 3.5mm mini jack can be used to take the television output to an amplifier with just a little experimentation with the levels to be used. If there isn't even a headphone output, the other solution is to take the audio output from the video source itself. Satellite receivers, cable boxes and disc players usually have an audio line output. Each of the sources can be routed to the amplifier and bypass the television altogether. If this solution is chosen, there is a possibility that the audio may not be synchronized to to the vision. This is due to the signal processing that takes place between the video source and the image reaching the display itself. Most digital receivers and players have a menu setting to adjust the audio delay to overcome this. Look for menu selections called "audio sync" or "audio delay". This solution will work for all sources other than the tuners built in to the television. External receivers are the only solution for this. Note: There are solutions that involve adding wiring to the inside of the television. Televisions have potentially fatal voltages present inside them. Unless you are qualified, do not attempt any solution that involves taking apart any equipment.
The frequency range used on all modern audio receivers is 10.7 to 12.75 GHz. The IF range is 950 to 2150 MHz. Audio receivers are also known as radios.

Av receivers from my understanding stand for audio video receivers and are used in home theater systems they're used to amplify sound from different audio sources and also send video to your TV from other sources. A simple way to find out more on AVA receivers would be to go to you local electronic store and ask a member off staff for more information.
