Question

so if you dont have HDMI on your 7.1 surround receiver but you have HDTV component on it is it possible to get HD sound out the receiver if i use a coaxal cable or optical cable

Answer 1

HD  is the Picture u get not the sound. Dolby digital and THX is the  sound.  HDMI ( high definition multi media interface)  it is a carrier ( Cable) of both digital sound and picture.

Answer 2

Use

the coaxial

for the audio portion

and component video for up

to 1080i in HD video resolution.  Enjoy!

Answer 3

Hd sound , your talking about True HD or DTS master audio right?

Well first of all youu can only get it from a Blue-ray player,not from a cable box or regular dvd player.

If your receiver is not hdmi equipped there is one option to get uncompressed True HD sound

Your receiver must have analog Multi-channel inputs in rear,and your blu-ray player must have analog multi-channel outputs.

the chances are good that your receiver has the 7.1 inputs.but while many Blu-ray players have the 5.1 multi-channel output not many if any (yet) have the full 7.1

You can get regular dolby digital and dts with optical/coaxial

connection,but not the new hd sound formats.
