Re: Onkyo Home Theatre System
The Onkyo's have a good reputation for HTiB. They at least come with an actual receiver that you can build on if you wish to upgrade. I would certainly recommend it over the Bose, which are overhyped and overpriced.
To hook it up, the simplest way would be to go HDMI from the PS3 to the TV for video and optical/coax digital audio from the PS3 to the Onkyo. This is the basic way to get the PS3/HTiB/TV connection working. It gets more difficult when you add more sources, depending on the type of connection and the method you wish to use to switch between sources. Please note that this model HTiB does no converting of video from lower to higher, so each type of source (HDMI/DVI, component, s-video, etc.) connected to the receiver must also have a connection to the TV. So unless your future HDTV source has HDMI, you are probably going to be switching between sources at both the TV and the receiver.
