- Set Wii U to Surround Sound in its audio options
- Used RCA red and white cables from receiver audio red and white outputs into TV variable (red and white inputs)
- Turned TV Speakers off, switched to external audio input and selected FIXED instead of variable---- found this after looking on here, ill try this plus I ordered a optical cable, maybe one of these will work

rudgerlightPosted 3/10/2013 10:40:39 PM | Any surround sound system with audio pass through should be good. I think that's most receivers these days. The issue a few years ago was that some receivers could only get the video from HDMI but not the audio, but it's easy to spot if it has it.
For instance:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-STRDH520-Channel-Receiver-Black/dp/B004NHCGJO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1362980190&sr=8-1&keywords=receiver
It says: "Standby pass-through of Audio & Video via HDMI connected devices". Just make sure it has that and you're golden.
I haven't really looked into receivers for a while, so I don't know what's the best anymore, sorry. |
