How to get the most out of TV audio?


Please excuse me if there is an obvious answer to this question that I'm not aware of. I'm a bit of a novice.

I watch a lot of music television. Rave and MusicHD for example. How do I get the most out of the audio signal brought to me courtesy of Dish Network?

I'm in the process of putting together my first real 2.0 system. I've got a pair of Vienna Acoustic Beethovens and I'm in the market for an amp.

Do I need an external DAC between my Dish box and my amp?

Any advice appreciated.

I have both stereo output jacks and a digital audio out. Which is going to produce better sound?
