Thanks Gonk-

Basically I bought the unit for its video strengths (wanted to get into HD disc content), which are outstanding. I wasn't ready for how good the sound output would be with the BD30 (I put Planet Earth in for my first disc) or should I say, how well the 990 would process that output. That's been one of my high points with the unit (990),i.e., since I listen to a lot of analog CD, besides HDTV.

I set up the speakers on the BD30 as you suggested; in fact, that was the way it was out of the box.

Again, thanks.
