How do i connect a surround sound dvd player to my receiver?
Ok so i have a http://www.yamaha.com/yec/products/productdetail.html?CNTID=567483&CTID=5000400 receiver. Im trying to connect it to a DVD player that supports surround sound. So basically, i have surround sound in the room but i want to put it through a receiver. I also have a big ole sub that i want to connect to the receiver. The main thing is that i dont know if i should connect the surround sound to the receiver and how the hell i am supposed to get the sound go through the receiver. So i want the surround sound and the sub to all be connected to the receiver. The sub is not made for the dvd player or the receiver. I know this question is confusing but im really confused to. Any help is appreciated.
Only if your surround sound system has a seperate receiver.

If I understand you correctly, You have a surround system and a receiver and the Surround system is indepnedent ( powers its own surround speakers). You can connect it to the Receiver but you most likely wont get the surround sound you want because the Surround Sound system is designed to do all the processing. It probably doesnt have an Optical or Coaxial out audio output. That would be the only way uou could do what you wanted.

I have reviewed several HT Surround sound systems and only a few have an actual audio output.
