Just the kind of expert advice I needed.

Just before I purchase my 8002 I asked a lot of questions on this forum and got a ton of great information.

See if you can find some of the threads.

I don't know what your receiver can do. Mine was able to connect by way of 7.1 audio.

I tried both ways to connect for audio: HDMI and 7.1 analog. For me the sound was much better going 7.1. I calibrated the speakers through the 8002 and ran direct through the receiver. Beautiful.

For video, I ran an HDMI cable to the receiver.

This set up was perfect for me.

Sorry

I did not notice you asked about PQ not AQ.

Then the first answer was correct

"with an hdmi cable"

What I'm refering to is I've heard there are certain settings on the menu that seem to work better. I know how to hook it up with the cable.
