With all the forums to chose from I just took a stab and entered this here.
I've been upgrading my older Yamaha system (24+) over the last year. Currently have a RX-V775 receiver, kept the MX-1 amp, a CD-600. Are far as speakers I upgrade the previous Polks (same age) w/ new pair RT1 A9 main speakers, A6 center and PSW 505 sub. Set-up is in great room. Have Samsung HD-TV but no surround speakers. Just purchased a new Yamaha BD-A1040 Disc player.
The question I have is what is the best audio connection and settings for the best sound w/ set-up above? Would it be better to use the HDMI for audio or the Lt/Rt audio out connection? I was thinking while researching awhile back that it would be best to use the 2-ch output in pure direct mode, or some other setting, and let the receiver do the processing? For movies I would like to get the rear surround processed through the two main speakers. I've been studying the manual but now confused and frustrated!
Thanks!
