    Just HDMI to the TV. That will carry the picture and (best quality) sound signals. Then just switch the receiver to the required input based on what you are watching. Xbox, Satellite etc...

    • I'm sure everyone else has said the same. Haven't read all the posts.Raniator
    • My receiver makes the video signal better by handling the HDMI itself and decoding deep color and upscalingdoublespaced
    • so, directly to TV looks worse on my setup. Plus, TV speakers suck assdoublespaced
    • Well you wouldn't use the TV speakers would you?! That's the whole point of using the AV amp... to connect it to your...Raniator
    • ...bad ass 5.1/7.1 surround sound setup.Raniator
    • And this ENTIRE thread is about using the receiver for video too, which you said not to dodoublespaced
    • No I didn't? The whole point of the receiver is that the signal from source (xbox) to output (TV) passes through itRaniator
    • Pictures ends up on TV, sound ends up through external speakers. One cable from amp to TV... simple!Raniator
    • Oh, I thought you proposed going "HDMI to TV" and bypassing the receiver. We're on teh same page.doublespaced
    • Phew! I thought I was losing it there for a second :)Raniator
