i will have a pioneer krp-500a,sc-lx81,either a bdp-71 or bdp-91,sky hd,ps3,xbox and dell xps 720h2c(speakers cm-9,cmc2,cm-5.svs pc13u).I want to use van del hul hdmi cables.
1) My dell outputs in coax or toslink(auzentech x-fi prelude),how should i connect to amp,as my gpu has dvi ouputs,u can buy dvi to hdmi which i can connect to amp with.If use seperate connections for audio and video can i get the amp to link them.This will take up 1 hdmi.
2)Sky hd i will connect with hdmi of course,i have heard that optical cables should eb used as the hdmi output is only stereo,once again will the amp assoiciate the audio and video channels.This will take up 1 hdmi.
3)My ps3 will output throught hdmi as the wire carries hd audio as well,this will take up 1 hdmi.
4)My xbox 360 will output through hdmi for video and optical for audio,yet again will the amp associate the two. this will take up 1 hdmi.
5)My blu ray player,i have not got this yet as i am decinding which one i need,this will output with hdmi for both audio and video.This will take up 1 hdmi.
that makes 5 devices,the pioneer sc-lx81 has 4 inputs,will i have to get a switcher,will this reduce the quality as i am getting expensive cable and will not want a switcher to ruin the quality.
Should i connect everything through my amp or would a connection to the tv be best,for example ms's count in gaming so would direct connection be the best.With upscaling dvd's with my blu ray player need an amp.any advice on how to connect and where to connect is needed
