    Component Hook Up?

    Well, this is my take on it. Admittedly a newbie but the HK has 30 Mhz of Component Video Switch Bandwidth capability. From my research, 20 Mhz is the minimum for progressive scan. If you listen to the designers of the equipment, you should be able to hook the DVD directly to the receiver and...

    Connect Dolby Digital AND 5.1 Channel Output?

    That's what it is all about! Getting the best from what you have. Thanks for the heads up on the music forum. I must admit to information overload right now though. Getting it all hooked up properly first to be able to use the new features and then start the tweaking is the plan. Thanks Justin. PDC

    Optical or component video or should I go direct

    Ahhhhh! I made the assumption that the optical input was the digital connection for both the audio AND video. Thanks for the information. Yes, the set has multiple component video inputs but only one coaxial digital connection. That was the reason for planning on utilizing the A/V receiver with...

    Optical or component video or should I go direct

    Out with the old, in with the new. New (Used) Sony KP-53HS10 HDTV, Sony DVP-NS755V DVD player and Sony STR-DA1ES A/V Receiver. Replaces a 15 year old 45" Zenith and Yamaha equipment. DVD wasn't even on the market yet when that equipment was in it's prime. But to get to the question, the Sony...
