[QUOTE="Randy Savage, post: 4265427, member: 545614"] Ok, just picked up some HT gear for uber cheap (got a Fluance SXHTB system and an Onkyo 505 for $250 total). I have 3 sources on my current system- HD cable box hooked up via HDMI, SD DVD player hooked up via component, and Xbox360 hooked up via component. What's the benefit of using the HDMI passthrough from my cable box to the receiver? Couldn't I just run optical from the box to the receiver and leave the HDMI how it is? The receiver has 2 opticals, so I guess I could run the cable box with HDMI, and the dvd player/xbox through optical audio, correct? [/QUOTE]
