Hi Rick,

Glad you mentioned the 800....

What is the best way to connect and configure an 800D to a 861v6?

This is how I see it but I'm not sure the 800D can be configured this way (yet):

800D outputting to 861v6 via Coax/SmartLink with MHR

CD Redbook ---> 44.1k (no upsampling)
DVD-A MLP ----> 96k pass-though (no upsampling or downsampling)
DVD DTS -------> Decode only, (no upsampling or downsampling)
DVD DD --------> Decode only, (no upsampling or downsampling)

Regards,
Carl
