In Reply to: Maybe you're confused... posted by joeb on February 02, 2002 at 13:56:21:
My system has the coax cable running into a VCR, and then I use the RCA (well, actually S-Video because it's a S-VHS machine) jack to connect to my A/V preamp. I have the stereo outputs connected to my audio preamp, but I could have connected them to the A/V preamp just as easily.You could keep running the coax directly into the TV if you wished by utilizing a high quality splitter, switch, or distribution amplifier. I've been using a powered Radio Shack 4-way distribution amplifier in my system for over ten years and have been quite satisfied with its performance.
I have no direct experience with cable boxes, so please accept my apologies if my advice is not germane to the situation.

Follow Ups:
Unless your cable company can provide you with a box with A/V outputs, using a VCR or a Radio Frequency demodulater are the only ways to convert an RF coax signal (with sound and picture) into separate sound/picture carriers which then go in to a reciever. An RF demodulater will probably cost about $40-80 (I haven't priced them though) and a VCR with AV outputs will cost about $60.I don't know what a "coax digital video-in" is so I can't help there. Usually when one refers to coax digital they mean to imply an bitstream/PCM audio carrier.
