Hi all,
My roommate just bought a sceptre 4k UHD TV. Obviously it's a cheap tv so it doesn't have that many features.
I want to buy a soundbar for it, and was looking at the Yamaha YAS-203. Since the Yamaha doesn't have an HDMI input though, I'd have to use the SPDIF output from the TV to the soundbar. This would be fine, but the TV only outputs PCM audio through the optical port when that audio comes into the TV from an HDMI input. :/
The YAS-203 has some impressive surround sound capabilities; I tested it out in Best Buy today. But if I can't get Dolby 5.1 to it then it's pointless. What are my options??
