Howdy all.


I have new projector (PLV-Z2) all set up so now its time to build my HTPC.


first question is.....


I have a JVC RX-8020VBK receiver and it has a USB input on the front does anyone have one of these and if so does it take the place of your sound card ??? or does it only play 5.1 / DD / DTSES from dvd and not from games???


thanks

I have the same receiver. No you don't need a soundcard at all, simply plug a USB cable from receiver to your HTPC. I don't know about the games since I don't play them, but it plays my MP3 collection and WAV files on the hard drive just fine so I would think so.

Hope this helps.
