    Need Help Samsung bd3600

    well first read this thread: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...00-canada.html then i would think that it is something in the setup of your avr or the 3600 (or both) that has to be set for the 7.1 jacks. You also have to use a certain type of cable i believe (not 100% on that one)...

    samsung bdp3600 in canada

    quote: 7.1 analogue jacks are for people who don't have HDMI. You don't lose any audio quality by sending the decoded signals over HDMI, nor would you lose sound quality by having your receiver do the decoding. I do not have HDMI on my reciever, so am I getting the best sound using the 7.1...

    samsung HL72A650 vs Samsung HL-T7288W

    i saw those. So you think it would be better to go with the 67 series 7 rather than the 72 that is non led? i was thinking that as well, the Samsung HL67A750 67" DLP LED HDTV is 2300$ at a local store. too bad they do not make a 72 in the LED.
