gawd, after reading the various posts, it seems i may keep my wallet in my back pocket. the analog connectors will send the proper signals to each speaker as the dvd player tells it to. however, my receiver is not able to handle the lfe, and if i'm correct, cannot adjust the tonal qualities of the music being heard; better off using the toslink connector. that is unless i catch a plane, get a black stocking masked hat, bring some tools, learn how to defeat sushi's alarm system, and slyly pocket his pio with the 6 analog cables..just kidding. i may need to change my screen name to "defeated dan".
