I bought a 3D blu ray player and I'm currently using a blu ray/surround sound. I'm wanting to connect the new blu ray up and still use the surround sound from the combo. Does anyone know if that is possible?
Answer
Your home theater in a box is not flexible for adding anything or for upgrading. It is mainly designed for you to watch a movie with the built in blu ray disc player with surround sound. They are a waste of money. Keep in mind, to watch in 3D you also need a 3D HDTV, 3D blu ray disc movie (at this time there are only around 140 titles available and they are mainly animated movie from disney) and you also need a 3D glasses. I would recommend you look at an Onkyo HT-S3500 to replace your home theater in a box. It is a 5.1 receiver and a set of speakers. You would connect your 3D blu ray disc player to the Onkyo and then connect the Onkyo to the tv. Demo the unit at any Fry's Electronic. It retails for around $300. If you purchase a 3D blu ray disc player, I hope you purchased a Panasonic brand. It is one of the most reliable player in the market with good reviews from Home Theater Magazine. Hope this will help you out.

Can you hook up a Blu Ray player to a Panasonic surround sound system?
Q. I'm interested in buying a Blu Ray player, but I don't want to buy a new surround sound system.
I forgot to mention that the surround sound system has a DVD player built into it.

Answer
Some entry level surround systems have few or even no audio inputs. If you want 5.1 surround, then your surround receiver would need to have an optical (or coaxial) digital audio input (and the Blu-ray player would need an audio output to match, either optical or digital).
If your surround receiver has stereo audio inputs (red and white color coded RCA inputs), then you could connect the Blu-ray player that way, but this would be 2.0 stereo, and not 5.1 surround.
If you can get the audio connected to the surround system, I am guessing you would still connect the Blu-ray player's video output directly to the TV, because your receiver probably has no video input, or at least no HD video input.
