No matter what the hook ups that I try I can not get surround sound. Could someone tell me if I need to run the hdmi to the cablebox from the receiver?
What type of cable box do you have? If its a high definition box then you can use the optical out from the box into your jvc's optical input. Non-hd cable boxes generally don't have surround sound outputs.

If the cable box isn't transmitting surround sound your stereo won't play it. You may be able to emulate it with settings on the receiver.

Thanks for the info. Both of your answers were helpful. I realized that I did not have the high def cable box, and took it back to get the one I needed. It is working now...
Thanks so much for your help.....
Hooking LG HDMI TV to HDMI cable box and cannot get sound when hooked into the box with HDMI cords. When I hook the TV directly with cable cord the sound works. Any other solutions?
