    Right thanks to the guys over at richersounds i'm now th proud owner of a pionner VSX 920.

    just looking for thoughts on my setup.

    Apple TV2
    Sony BPS 370
    UPC HD

    all connected with HDMI, now there is opticals ports on the blue ray player adn the apple TV. do i need to use th eoptical or will th eHDMI give me the best sound.

    the VSX920 is a 7.1 system but i have onlly 5.1 speakers. can i leave out two of them? will i just get another 2 speakers to bring it up to 7.

    Thanks,

    Read the manual, the answer isn't necessarily the same for each device. A Sky HD box for example outputs regular (left and right only) stereo via the HDMI port, you need an optical or coaxial cable to get 5.1

    You should be able to access an option on the setup menus to say that you only have 5.1 capability.
