  • The dvd Surround system will play tv audio and it will create the illusion of being Surround sound but would the sound come from the tv via my hdmi cable or would i need to get a different audio cable these questions are asked because i don't intend to unpack until xmas


  • The sound will continue to come out of your TV speakers. If you are using your surround system for sound, you will more than likely want to turn off your TV speaker sound. Many of us with such systems have programmable remotes which allow certain settings, such as this, to be easily changed without digging through layers of menus.


  • Simple answer ... if you have an HDMI output from the TV and an HDMI input to the surround system ... yes (although as noted you will want to turn off the TV speakers if you go this way).

    You want to only use the TV for the picture, and send the sound (via whichever TV audio output jack format you have on both the TV and surround system capable of multichannel audio (i.e optical, digital coaxial or HDMI) to an input on the surround sound system (which I'm interpreting as a combo DVD player/amp (or receiver) with surround speakers). If you don't have one of the three formats listed on BOTH the TV and surround system you won't get surround sound. Note that for your purposes all three will give virtually identical results. Use whichever cable you have, and note that you DON'T need an expensive HDMI cable if you decide to go that way ... any cable (although ideally a Category 2 rated HDMI 1.3 version. See link for a good source) will work fine.

    Note that many TV broadcasts these days are in 5.1 sound, so if set up right, your surround system will be giving real surround, not an illusion (at least for these programs).

    Hope that helps.
