Exclamation Technical Home Theatre sound issue. HELP!

I'm hoping to high heaven that someone in here can give me some help with this problem because no one else seems experienced enough technically to help me at all. I just bought the BDP-s300 Blu-Ray player which doesn't process most high def sound. I have it hooked up to an Onkyo 7.1 THX certified home theatre without HDMI compatibility so I'm running off of a THX Monster optical cable. Because of the lack of HDMI compatibility for this player to run through my system, it is only getting sent a 2ch signal for all PCM soundtracks. Which pretty much means "Hey, you DID buy a Blu-Ray player, but you don't get to hear the main reason you bought it."

My question is, If I were to upgrade to the BDP-s1 player that processes and decodes all sound formats will I still have the same problem or will I be able to get true PCM sound through my optical? Or if not, is there any alternative? Did Sony just screw me into having to spend another $900 on a new HD reciever? Let me know asap please. Thanks all.
