Default Digital Cable Box
So I finally made my first HDTV Purchase. I was originally going with the Panny, but I got screwed over by Sears, so I got the Samsung FP-T5084 (50" 1080p Plasma) at the same price from Amazon instead - Final Price w/ free shipping and no tax: $2,299.98.

So now my question. I have IO Digital Cable and I just traded in my regular cable box for the HD Box. I get 42 HD Stations for free. Some of the programs are offered w/ Dolby® Digital AC-3 (5.1). Does this mean that my Cable Box should be connected to my receiver (Onkyo 705) via HDMI so it can decode the 5.1 and send it to my surround speakers? And then connect to my TV via HDMI for the picture?

What is everyone else doing? Cable box to the receiver or straight to the TV?

Thanks!!!
