I have an Arcam AVR350 AV receiver and Pioneer PDP507 plasma. Currently I use Playstation 3 for blu ray. The AVR350 does not decode HDMI but does have multichannel inputs.
Question 1 - Is it worth buying a Blu Ray such as Sony 760 with multi channel outputs ie will the difference in sound be worth the outlay?
Question 2 – If using multi channel outputs for HD audio is it best to stick with this for all formats or do I revert to a digital output for non HD such as 5.1 and DTS and let the Arcam perform the decoding?
