Best way to hook up my blue ray player.


Gear: Sony BD-S300 Blu ray player, Sony 46KLD-XBR7 LCD TV, Rotel RSX-1057 A/V reciever. Currently, I have an HDMI cable running from my DVD player to my TV, and I have a Digital optical cable running from my DVD payer to the receiver. I see some peole are running the HDMI through the A/V reciever then to the TV. Which is the better way to set this up. Thanks

Cerrot and I have the same setup and to confirm his observations I found no difference in direct connections while the system approach (though the receiver) gains all the Pioneer conveniences and operational simplicity.

Cerrot, My wife and I just spent a few hours in front of a Samsung flagship LED display which was very nice. I even found a comparatively priced Elite monitor for this friend but his wife insisted on the thin LED. My wife and I both noticed a substantial lack of detail in this LED which was confirmed upon returning home. We love our plasma.
