Hd Audio Through Two-channel Hi-fi

摘要

I'm currently trying to integrate a basic two-channel home cinema into my hi-fi system. I'm a valves and vinyl person and am finding it next to impossible to answer what I regard to be key questions when it comes to achieving the best audio quality. The additional components will be a Sky HD box (which I'm also intending to use as a tuner), Blu-ray player (yet to be decided), Xbox 360 and the 9th generation Pioneer 60in screen. My original intention was to run the three new source components into a standalone DAC and from there into my stereo amplifier. I've since read that as part of the licence agreement, Blu-ray players aren't able to output HD audio via their non-HDMI digital outs. I'm unaware of any similar restrictions for the Sky HD box or 360.
