The optical output of the PS3 can be connected to older surround sound receivers. Newer receivers can be connected with the HDMI cable.
I tried to do this and there is no way you can have surround sound on that tv.
It is very easy to get a surround sound hook up on the Viewsonic Widescreen TV hook up
hook up your ps3 to your television (with HDMI cable) and depending on what kind of television you have, you need to send the audio out to the sound system. I used an optical cable for the best quality sound. Now, no matter what is hooked up to your television, it will go through your sound system.
You will need the appropriate sound card and software.
Connect the digital audio output from the TV to the digital input of the surround sound receiver.
You can play dolby surround CDs if you have a surround-sound capable receiver. It should take no work on your end.
An HDMI cable connects from the Bell cable box to the surround receiver and then to the TV.
Yes. Simply run a coxial aidio cable or a Toslink cable from your sony playstation to your amplifier and you will have linked your sony playstation with your home theatre.
Hook the Sound Blaster to the computer, it should have a wizerd automantic set up to guid you through it unless it comes with softwere then just put the CD in the CD-drive, and follow the set up.
You will have to use some universal media connector to attached to the TV in order to have surround sound.
If you are using a Blu-Ray player and your blu-ray and surround receiver both have coaxial digital audio connectors, you can use those to connect the two, bypassing the TV for the audio.
