I just picked up a Sony LCD TV and upgraded the cable. I ordered the TV so I don't have it yet. It should be here on the 15th of Feb. So in the meantime I've revisited my home theater set up. Which is pretty old, but everything is still good. But I'd like to get some new cables and have everything all set so when it shows up it'll be easy to set up and useable instead of running back out for stuff.

The hook up of the TV will be easy enough. HDMI to HDMI connection from the cable box to the TV.

My question is how to hook up the DVD player to get the best picture and sound? My A/V Receiver doesn't have any component hook ups on the back. But it does have Svideo, 2-Optic, 1-Digital Coaxial.

So I was thinking I could run the component wires from the DVD player to the back of the TV and run a Digital Optic to the Receiver.

Or should I run the S video from the DVD to the receiver then a S cable from the Receiver to the TV.

Or run a Digital Coaxial cable from the DVD player to the Receiver and Scable from the Receiver to TV.

I'm a novice when it comes to this stuff....
