I am somewhat unsure whether HDMI connexion via a compatible amp can output sound in an SD DVD player (like HD DVD) or is it always thor' co-ax or optical only?
Thanks Graham. I think I understand, but I do have a follow up. What sort of sound is output, then, if one were to connect, say a Toshiba E-1, using the HDMI, passed through a Yamaha 2600?
