New member Username: CpottrPost Number: 1 Registered: Jan-05 | Hello everyone, I hope this message finds you all well. I am completely lost and need help setting up my new entertainment system. I have purchased the following: Sony grand wega 50 inch tv Sony DVP ns975v dvd player Yamaha Rx-v750 receiver Cox dvr player I have purchased a hdmi to hdmi cable to connect the dvd player to the tv. I have also purchased a toslink optical cable to connect the dvd player to the receiver. Is that the right way to do it? I also do not know what I need to connect the tv to the receiver. I want to run the sound from both the tv and the surround sound system. I am assuming that the Cox cable person will be able to hook up the dvr system and the hd cable, but one never knows what will happen. As I am totally clueless, I would appreciate any help that anyone can give me. Thanks Christian |

The only suggestion I have is that you might consider using the highest quality connection(HDMI) for your HD signal where it will make a larger impact, and then use component cables to connect your 480p DVD player. As for your setup possibilities, a lot will depend on Cox and what output options exist on their cable box. |
