system? I have a Samsung HDTV and a 360 and an Emerson stereo. Is there any way I can hook up my emerson stereo and speakers and use it as like a surround sound receiver or speakers? I also have a sony stereo too if that will work?
Solution #1:
You need a receiver/stereo that has a digital optic ( toslink) IN .. then you need to get an adapter for your 360 that plugs in to that long rectangular socket and puts out one optical OUT. It's called the "XBOX 360 Audio adapter". Then you connect the audio adapter to your IN socket mentioned above with a toslink( fiberoptic) cable. Then you connect the hdmi to your tv and you have video plus surround sound.
(or)
#2:
You take the hdmi and pass it through a hdmi pass through receiver and then plug it to the tv.
