First Post, Here goes...
My Setup:
Pioneer SC-37 Receiver
Rotel 5.1 Amp (Main Zone)
Rotel 2.1 Amp (Zone 2)
B&W Speakers Throughout
Sub HSU VTF-3 MK3
Niles Speaker Selector Box
XBox 360, PS3, DVR, Apple TV Connected through HDMI
Wii Connected through Components
I've been searching for a solution with no luck so far, so please help. I wanting to play any of the above HDMI sources (specifically Apple TV being most important) over my Zone 2 (that only accepts Analog like most receivers).
I understand I can run an analog cable from my DVR to the Receiver. But some of the above (ie Apple TV) only take HDMI (and I don't want to lose the HDMI quality by converting the HDMI to analog for my main zone. Is there a simple adapter that will allow for the HDMI to pass through without degrading quality AND have an Analog out as well (so I can connect it to an analog channel to play over my zone 2)? Or any other creative solution I might be missing that's clean and practical?
Thanks so much!
