Greetings Peeps.
Not been on for a while, but am after some assistance please.
I ordered the PS3 on Friday (the Woolies deal posted on HUKD!) and have a few queries about connectivity. Have had a quick look through the forum's but can't find anything specific!
Basically my kit is: -
PS3
Panny PX60
Panny HT855 Home Cinema (upscales DVD as well)
Sky+ (soon to be replaced by Sky HD)
OK - at the moment, I have Sky connected via SCART to the PX60, Sky connected to the 855 via Optical, and the 855 connected to the PX60 via HDMI.
I have a number of Component connections on the PX60 free, as well as another HDMI socket.
Now, the question is the best way to wire my PS3 into that lot!!!!!!!!!!
I was thinking of connecting the Ps3 via Component, and leaving my 855 connected via HDMI and saving the other HDMI for when I get Sky HD. But I thought that might be a waste, so might as well put the PS3 through HDMI and the 855 through component.
But, that leads me to my other problem, which is the audio connections.
I think the PS3 only has Optical out, so how can I get Surround Sound when playing Blu Ray through the 855? I think it only has one Optical in, which Sky+ currently uses. Can I get a splitter?
Any advice would be appreciated from any learned Forum members!!!!
Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read, and hopefully respond!
