Re: Surround Sound with HDMI
HD sound is really just uncompressed surround sound, Not sure if an optical cable could carry the 6/7 individual streams without encoding it again.
Most HD amps have a HDMI port in and a HDMI out port, from the player it goes to HDMI in, and then from the HDMI out to your TV. That way sound data is intercepted but video is passed through.
