I just got a DVD player that is DVD Audio compatible. In my old setup I used an optical cable for audio.
What is the best way to set up the audio connection to my receiver? If I understand correctly the DVD audio signal will not work through optical and I need to set up the 5 channel audio cables? My amp has the inputs for 5 channel audio, so I can go either way. I am just curious if my audio for DVD movies will suffer using the 5 channel sound, or if it will be OK.
Also, if I have both 5 channel analog and optical cable connected will the movies use optical and the DVD Audio use 5 channel analog?
Finally, if I am going to use 5 channel do I use regaulr RCA audio cables, or is something special required?
Thanks for any help.
