How do you connect a modern bu ray player to a Shure HTS? Also, if you input a lossless stereo (PCM, DTS-HD MA), is it also a lossless surround on the output?
Sorry, a total newbie about this here
The Shure HTS decoders have analog inputs and outputs.
To use it with a modern home theater, you'll need to output the stereo audio from the analog outputs of your playback device to the stereo rca inputs of the HTS. The HTS outputs the decoded audio using six analog rca outputs. You'll need either an AVR with that has a 5.1 or 7.1 analog input, or a power amp with the same. I use a Pioneer SC-99.
As for whether it's lossless, that depends on the decoding done by your blu ray player or whatever playback device you're using, as the rest of the process is analog.
