Ok when it comes to having the "stuff" I got it... but am not techie

So I need help configuring my Pioneer Receiver VSX-9120TXH-K with my PS3... how can I get TrueHD sound? Im guessing the PS3 doesnt decode that as of now... so Ill have to get a stand alone bluray player right? OK so I do that....

What next... anyone have this receiver that can let me know the best setting to plug in etc?

Hope that all makes sense?

Cheers in advance for the help

The PS3 does Dolby True-HD and DTS HD MA (it will decode it to multi channel LPCM, but it cannot bitstream it, the difference is that the PS3 does the decoding instead of the receiver). Set the PS3 to output linear PCM via HDMI. Your reciever will show something like multch pcm and you can it "select" on the ps3 to see what the type of soundtrack that the ps3 is decoding.

Enjoy!
