i am interested to hear what option people have found to be a better choice for listening to television broadcast (and vhs viewing) through home theater surround sound set-up.
which sounds better in your opinion:
-interconnect cables running from the audio output on the t.v. to the input on my receiver
OR
-interconnect cables running from my hi-fi vcr audio out to same input on the receiver
i was considering changing my current set-up but i dont want to have to pull everything apart unless it is necessary. right now i am using the second set up mentioned while leaving my vcr on all of the time.
i would also appreciate advice on what you think is a decent, reasonably priced interconnect (<1 meter needed) for this job. thanks in advance!

Hi Jason, I use to have my system connected via the output of the tv, was getting a hum that I couldn't figure out. Got the cable guy in, he told me about a filter of sorts (?) in the tv that will create this 60hz hum if it has the filter, obviously mine does. When we connected the tv through the vcr the hum disappeared. Now you can only watch tv through your vcr given that you've got the player connected to cable as well(obviously!!!). Good luck and happy viewing!Have a good one. Peace SteveF
Hi Jason,It's me again, SteveF. I just reread my post, I should have said that the cable needs to be connected to your vcr, not the tv!! My mistake, sorry!! SteveF
