Ok. Im a super novice so don't laugh at me. I have the following speakers:
polk side speaker
proseries 1000 definitive center
prosub 800 subwoofer definitive
yamaha receiver (7.1) about 5 yrs old
sont ps3 (for my blue rays)
At&t Uverse DVR
I need to know what components I need to get the best possible sound from these speakers/equipment (as best quality digital sound possible)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just tell me what I need to buy to make the sound hook up the best. Thanks! |

Do you have the speakers hooked up to the receiver? Are you OK there?
What TV are you using?
What hookups are available on the DVR? |

I have the speakers hooked up to the receiver with reg speaker wires and everything else is just basic setup to sub and center thru the tv sound output to receiver. I was hoping for a better way to get the best possible true digital sound but dont know how to go about doing this......
I have a samsung lcd 46 inch LN46A550 but i dont know what kind of configuration the dvr has. Its a standard AT&T Uverse multi room DVR that can record 4 shows at once (2 hd and 2 sd) |

First, make sure you are running digital audio into the receiver from all sources. I believe the PS3 uses optical on its output. You'll have to look for an output on the DVR. It will be either optical or coax. |
