I need help setting up surround sound, I have a digital cable box, dvd, receiver, and tv. My concern is the audio, I want to be able to use digital cable and the dvd player with and without surround sound. The digital cable box has a digital coax out which I will hook up to the receiver and analog out which will go to the tv, but should the analog signal go through the receiver or straight to the TV?
My receiver is a Sony STR-DE605 and it's only digital coax in connector is listed as "DVD IN" but the cable box digital out only has a coax connection, will the receiver know what to play if the DVD signal is carried over optical connection to "Video 2 IN" and the cable box carried into the DVD in connection?
