Unless there is a better way, and if so let me know, I have a HDMI cable from my DVR Cable HD Converter box straight to the tv's 1st HDMI port with analog connections from the box to my surround sound. HDMI sound was waaaayyyy too low no matter what I tried. Then I'm running a HDMI from my video card (using a DVI to HDMI converter connector) straight into the second HDMI port on my tv. Sound is feed again through analog (RCA) cables to my surround sound system straight from the sound card on the computer. Video card is an older 7600GT that does the job quite well (along with the Dual Core proc and 2 gigs of DDR2 ram)

Since Salad brought it up, any suggestions on improving my current hardware configuration (other than new hardware lol)

EDIT: The only thing I want to replace is the surround sound system, the current one is an older AIWA system I bought on the cheap that has served me well for the past 7 years (was orginally in my living room before I went component with my Kenwood Receiver) So any suggestions on a decent 7.1 surround system with a receiver (no need for dvd/cd player) would be appreciated as well. Something for a baller on a budget mind you lol.
