Well folks Michael Warner's post was right on. It's been approx. one month and I'm back to say the Y-splitter works like a charm. My DVD player and Dig. cable box are each connected to an end of the Y then the Y is plugged into my JVC's Digital Coxial in. As Michael noted just don't have them...

Thanks Michael, I guess that's what I was fishing for a simple solution. Is the Y splitter capable of splitting the digital signal. You mention a composite Y, I only recall that term used as a video source. If it is a composite Y I guess you're telling me it works with digital audio, that's...

Thanks, You mention using a video switch, you're saying a video switch is OK to use as Digital audio switch?

thanks for the reply I wouldn't have both signals active at the same time. I'll be playing either the DVD or the Dig Cable box, So wouldn't a splitter work if there was such a thing? Thanks Joe

Greetings, my Receiver has only one Digital Coaxial Cable input. The problem: I have two outputs, a Digital Coaxial output from my DVD player & a Digital Coaxial output from my Digital Cable Box. Is there by chance a splitter ? Sending my two outputs into a splitter and then plug that splitter...

Greetings, My Sony S560D Player is 4 1/2 years old and is giving me lots of trouble playing DVDs. I'm throwing in the towel and getting a new Player. Looking to spend no more than $249. I rent a lot of movies and many are in bad shape. So lately my player has been freezing, jumping skipping...

Jason thanks, now what do I do. The wireless headphones were for the wife who likes to watch TV at night in the bed and I thought I could get some peace and quiet. Running it to my receiver(living room) first would mean I'd have to turn on the receiver for her to use the headphones in the...

Is it possible to connect a digital coaxial audio output from my TV to a device (wireless headphone box) with an analog input. Has anyone gone from digital to analog. Can I rig up such a connection. Thanks Joe

John and Mitch thanks for the reply. The Fluance speaker looks like a good one, but a little too big. Maybe I will buy two surround backs if I find a pair priced right. How about two small cubes anyone know of. My speakers currently were a christmas gift, Polk 6005s and polk sub, as a new HT...

Funny chuck :) I had to laugh myself at your reply. I can only imagine what you had a picture of. The speaker I'm looking for needs to be very small maybe 4x4x4. The back of my couch is lower than my head:). Would a computer speaker work ? Thanks Joe

Greetings, I'm looking for a very small, (smaller the better) speaker to us as a center surround back. The speaker will sit on the back of my couch, because the couch is against the wall. Thanks Joe

This JVC is a steal I would reccomend it to anyone looking for a first HT receiver. 130 watts I paid $255 at 6th ave electronics they matched their online price at their store. One very happy camper. funny back in 1972 while in the Army I bought a 4 channel Pioneer Stereo pre HT

Thank You everyone, I bought the JVC New Years Day and have been playing with it ever since. I can't speak highly enough about this receiver it has everything this newbee could want and sounds fantastic. I think a movie is really 50% sound now. Tweak,tweak,tweak. How long did you folks take...

Greetings, If my Sony DVD DVP-S5600 has full DD setup for my speaker system and so does my new JVC RX-8030V receiver, does one become priority over the other for speaker settings, size, distance etc. The Sony DVD player and the JVC can both decode DD. How do set them? I love this JVC, I just...

The deal is done I purchased the JVC 8030. Thank you everyone. Thanks Ed Moxley, just finished reading your last reply, I feel just a bit better as you write Good words of comfort. Joe
