I want to get my dvd 5.1 output to my 5.1 speakers. The receiver doesn't
have any 5.1 input only 2 channel input. Is this possible? DVD player has
5.1 cable & optical output , receiver has 5.1 speaker output but no 5.1
cable/optical input only 2 channel input. Is it possible to get the dvd's
5.1 output routed thru and to the proper speakers going thru the receiver?


No. You can have the DVD player downmix 5.1 to 2 channels for your
receiver. However, if you only have a 2 channel receiver, that's all
it is: 2 channels.



MSB probably still does mods to allow for such an input, but I doubt
it's cost effective unless he's got a very expensive receiver.
