Surround Sound Compatibility With New Soy Blu Ray Disc Players
i am thinking of buying a new sony BDP-S380 blu ray disc player but don't know if the old Sony STR-DG600 AV Receiver will decode the audio of the new blu ray players. the str-dg600 does not have hdmi connections so i will probably connect the video from the blu ray to tv via hdmi and the audio from blu ray to str-dg600 via the coaxial jack. thanks very much. william
