A while back, I purchased a very decent Philips DVD Home Theater system. I'm not looking for anything too upscale, just something to give some nice sound while watching movies. I've really enjoyed it so far and I'm surprised at how much it has enhanced our movie viewing experience. However, after viewing a few Blu-Ray movies at a buddy's house, I'm now in the market for a Blu-Ray player.
There's only one issue: The speakers included with my DVD home theater system have connections specific to the included DVD receiver. I was wondering if I would be able to somehow connect the speakers to the Blu-Ray player once I got it. I am assuming that to do this, I would have to connect the Blu-Ray player to the DVD reciever.
The DVD receiver has two red and white audio inputs (Aux 1 and Aux 2). I know that the Blu-Ray player needs to be connected to the television using an HDMI cable, but can I connect red and white audio cables from the Blu-Ray player's audio outs to one of the DVD player's audio inputs to pipe the sound through my surround sound system? Or will I face some issues?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
