    HDMI with optical audio?

    I have the Onkyo 605 and I used hdmi from sony blu ray to samsung tv, optical from blu ray to onkyo for sound. I did this b/c I was told that if I ran video thru onkyo I would lose picture quality. Is this true??

    Onkyo 605 Audessey

So I went into the settings and changed the setting of the sub to +6 ( the highest possible is +12). The sub has a volume on it that I can adjust. Am I on the right...

    Speaker Recommendation

    Since I am reasonable happy with my setup for now, what if I was to expand my budget to say $3,000. What kind of jump in performance should I expect and what should I look at for that kind of money. Also I just bought the sub this year, do I really need to upgrade that right away?

    I would prefer wall mounted for all with a budget of approx 1,000.-1,200. max. But open to suggestions. I am prob not looking for cubes again based on some of the info I am reading on this forum.

    Lights Behind T.V

    I have a Samsung 40 inch L.C.D. I have it mounted on my wall, it sits back somewhat in a relatively dark area. My question is what is the purpose of lighting behind the T.V. I see some of the T.V's have this feature built in. So is it just a fashion thing, or would I benefit from putting some...
