Unfortunately, that arrangement does not permit you to enjoy any of
the new lossless CODECs (Dolby TrueHD, dtsHD-MA) which can be output
only over HDMI (as bitstream or LPCM) or over analog outputs.

What makes you think that the AVR-7000 does not have 6 discrete audio inputs?

Simply because I misread your statement and responded to the first
mention that you "use coaxial digital to connect to my Harman-Kardon
AVR-7000."

OTOH, the HD-A2 lacks 6 discrete audio outputs, afaik.
