NCAA Football around the corner and I am not ready! I upgraded my theater garage and am stuck. Had a HTIB (won it at work) and bought a Yamaha RX 363bl receiver. Need Help with the setup:

Video = Mits. HC 1500 projector
= DVR HD Cable Box
= PS3
Audio = RX 363 receiver
= 5.1 surround Samnsung

Had to go with a different receiver, the one that cam with the HTIB was real weak. Rear speakers would not connect (some "wireless" connection). I know that in the new receiver there r 2 HDMI ins and 1 out, but none of which are audio capable. What will I need to do for sound from 5.1 system, dig. optical or coaxial??

Thanks for the help

Either is fine, they're equivalent.

I will say that the coaxial is a little more durable. The optical is what I prefer (not an electric signal so less chance for signal loss but even that is unlikely) but if you bend the optical it can stop working.
