PS3 for blu and surround


I just bought a PS3 and would like to know what surround formats I would be recieving. I have an older Onkyo 6.1 rcvr with only toslink and coax, no HDMI except to the HDTV. Should I set the PS3 for PCM for multichannel or some other format. I know they sell better rcvr's now but this Onkyo will only be used for multichannel. All suggestions heeded.

It is a TX-DS797, the Onkyo that is.

Scrowley,

Given your response to Blu-ray, I suspect you would be blown away by a receiver with HDMI and the new lossless codecs. You can probably find a used one on AudiogoN at a good price.
