I have the player directly connected to the TV using an HDMI cable and the audio connected to the receiver using and fiber cable.

When I am watching movies, I sometimes see grainy parts or something on those lines. For audio, I would think in some parts of the movies, there should be more bass. I have been looking at receivers with HDMI 1.3 and have been thinking about upgrade to all HDMI for video and audio. My questions is, is my setup currently good and I basically getting everything I am going to get and wait a while to upgrade or am I missing out and should look into upgrading. With the upgrade, will I get a lot more performance in video and audio? Any suggestions to improve on my correct setup will me greatly appreciated too. Sorry guys for the long questions. Any help you can give me with help me out a lot. Thanks
Um, first of all does ur current reciever have HDMi? if it does, attach it there first, before it goes to the tv, and then u will have your pcm audio through it. IF you don't have an hdmi input on your reciever, then use the 6 channel analog outputs on the back of the sony and plug them into your reciever in the analog inputs.
THis method can also transport the pcm audio, if your not experiencing this, your not experiencing next generation audio.
I belive that the DD True HD and DTS Master Audio will travel through the analog outputs as well as long as u set your player to decode it internally. Well hope that clears the mud a little bit
