audio from comcast and other providers

On my brighthouse box , the cable will carry the video and audio to the TV . The left and right audio out , from the back of the cable box , then goes to my integrated amp .

Also the "CD quality " music only channels sound better than the VH1 , MTV and CMT music channels . Trade off , no video ! There is always a trade off .

Good luck .

Ok,

So an hdmi cable is not needed. Just the coax cable (cable feed to cable box, cable box to tv. And then rca's from cable box to amp. Right? jj

Yes.

Good luck .

I would strongly recommend taking the digital out (optical = toslink) to a digital in on your HTR if available. It will be much better than the audio out. The cable box has very cheap DAC.

Hi

The Musical Fidelity doesn't have a digital out so I'll have to use audio out. So, as I had queried earlier in this thread, should I use a dac?

Thank-you for all the insight. I have a better understanding now and it does seem that a dac is necessary. Correct?
