Hi Guys,
I am expecting my new V+ box to arrive in a couple of weeks. I need some advice on connecting the audio to my AV receiver and speakers...
Does the V+ box have a optical or digital coax out?
Is it better to route the audio direct via optical/coax to my AV receiver or is it just as good to route audio via HDMI to my TV and then stick with my TV's optical out to my receiver? in other words - do I lose anything routing the audio through my TV?
If I route direct to my receiver via optical/coax from the V+ box, will I still get audio to my TV via HDMI (at the same time)??
Final question, slightly off-topic -- how good is the V+ box upscaling for SD? I hear it is good but how would it compare to an old V box connected via scart to my new Sony KDL40-5500? The TV upscales but not sure how good a job it does compared to the V+ box...
Thanks in advance
Help appreciated!
