For reasons to complex to explain (having to do with a previous Receiver that caught fire and was replaced)... I had previously run (through the walls with great difficulty) a component cable (red/blue/green) and a digital audio cable (orange) OUT from my Receiver IN to my LCD TV.
With my replacement Receiver, I must run directly from the Satellite Box directly to my LCD TV. The Satellite Box has 2 optical digital Outs and analogue red/white RCA Outs.
So I connected the digital audio cable (orange) to the Satellite RCA (white) OUT and In to the TV RCA white. Seems to work fine.
Question: can this setup cause any damage?
Question: I assume this provides my TV only with Mono (not stereo) sound?
Question: Is this another way to connect (without running additional cables!) that might give me stereo sound on the TV?
As you can tell, I'm a real novice, so any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks.
