Be careful when you use the term "pass thru" in the same sentence as "receiver" !
Some receivers only pass video, and you need an optical connection for audio ... BAD!
I'd agree with the posted suggestion to get a HDMI audio/video capable receiver and a decent pair of L/R speakers to start and build from there.
Good luck!
