I'm going to setup my own home theater and I just want to make sure I have everything correct. I have a PS3, Projector, and a surround sound system. I'm going to hook up my PS3 to my projector via HDMI cable, then will I also be hooking up my PS3 to my surround sound? I read it would be better to buy an optical cable to do this because I will have 5.1 instead of 2.0 with the AV cables? Could I hook my surround sound to my projector with an HDMI cable (have 2 ports on projector) or does it have to be the PS3 or is it just a matter of whatever cable turns out to be cheaper and it's my choice? Any help would be great thanks for your time.
 
If your surround sound system is a DVD built-in with amp then you can connect HDMI from it to projector for playing DVD disc. But you have to connect optical cable from PS3 to sound system for 5.1 surround sound while playing PS3 games or Blu-ray movies.
