RC-5 in /out, and a ? about dts dpl2
I have RC-5 in/out on the back of my marantz sr 5400. What is it for? I googled it and only came up with one relevant thing, it seems to be for remote controls.
2. As of right now my dvd player is my xbox. There is no optical digital audio connection for it. My receiver has digital optical and digital coax inputs. Is using these inputs the only way to get true surround sound from my system. I think i read somewhere that you have to have the digital inputs for dts. I plan on getting a dvd player very soon, like after my tax return. And what about the 6.1 input on the back of my receiver. Isnt this the 'same' as using the dig opt/coax as far as the signal transmitted.
Thanks.
