it depends on the bd disc.some are 2 channel 5.1 6.1 & 7.1if you want to do it on the cheap go with hd d.d & dts mastering.if you want to use the old amp & have the inputs cd, aux,ect will work with the speakers you will have to find an amp with pre outs.I dont think the new ones have pre outs & the older one dont do the hd mastering.just options to think about.even if they have one the amp will be expensive because the price is based on the features on the back.im using the older ht 6.1 amp with preouts to a stereo.cant comment on the newer amps if they sound better cause I dont have one.regerdess of what you do it will sound & look better than dvd.I use the older onkyo ht that were made for dvd audio.they will convert the digital audio to the analog pre outs

dvd audio & multichannel sacds rule
