[QUOTE="Jason Willemse, post: 906758, member: 18958"] I think some research on audio formats via different cables will do you some good in understanding the options. HDMI for multichannel movie audio is pretty much the benchmark, so there is no disputing it for the 5.1 you mention. With the right hardware in the pc, everything will run correctly for 5.1 via HDMI, provided the source file contains such format. Using Bluetooth for audio indicates that sound quality is of less importance over convenience - that you have an iPhone means you are already in the iOS zone... so why not add an appleTV 4k and be done. Audio at your convenience, your library accessible from the spare PC via the ATV, in the right audio format, all through a single HDMI. You can also control the whole thing from your phone then too. Ditch the tv to AVR audio thing... run all your source from device to AVR, then only picture to the screen. Cleans it all up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
