I just need to figure out if my dvd recorder currently has optical cable attached to it - I think it is either optical or coaxial digital...I think the latter so I guess I need optical cable.
Where's best place to get optical and HDMI cable.
You can get them online cheaper but with the posttal strike you may have to wait longer for them. The cheapest HDMI cables locallhy are probably in the big supermarkets. Other then that Woolworths do one for £10. Regards optical probably the same places or possibly Maplins.
ok what i have done is connected my ps3 directly to tv via hdmi. I then hav another hdmi cable going from the hdmi out on the amp to the hdmi in on tv. I then hav an optical cable running from the tv to the amp. Will this setup give me the required blu ray sound from the ps3? I currently notice that the same sound from the front 2 speakers is coming out the surround speakers aswell.

Is there an quality advantage from running an HDMI cable for visual and a separate optical cable for audio?
