My TV is Hitachi 65 TWX 20 B and has no HDMI. It does have DVI and component. I have Dish VIP 211 HD box with HDMI that i hooked to my TV with DVI / HDMI cord. (HDMI on one end and DVI on other end of cord). I have the sound hooked up to my old Panny SA XR 45 via optical.
I will be buying new receiver soon (with low budget of $ 400.00). I have been looking at the Onkyo 605, Pioneer 1018, yammy 661. My question is this:
If my new receiver has HDMI (with audio), I can go from the STB into the receiver with HDMI for my sound. Then, I run the HDMI out from my new receiver to my TV which I will have to use th HDMI / DVI cable. I know I wont have sound coming from the DVI, but wont I have sound if listening with surround sound receiver on?
