It depends what connections the TV has. If it has HDMI sockets then you should be able to connect the player via one of them. The sound should be connected using an optical lead from the player to the Sony Center.
However you will not be ever be able to play a 3D movie till you have a 3D TV. It will simply not work.
So at the moment you have purchased a an expensive 3D player which can only play back normal Blu-Ray's and DVD.
Sounds like you could have a blown amp/speaker or you've got a short in your speaker lead. Typically, when there's not enough resistance on a wire is when you start getting the crackling noises.
Just to confirm you are not alone. We have the 3 Disc Blu-ray Extended Edition Collectors Edition and the same Sony bdp-s350. Black screen. I updated the software yesterday directly thru the ethernet connection.
Let's deal with the turntable sound first - unless it's a self-preamplified model you would have to get an external phono-specific preamp to use with this receiver. Without one you'll get microscopically weak, tinny sound from the turntable. Google "RIAA curve" to see why.
As far as the CD sound through the Blu Ray player... for one thing it is flat, as in two-dimensional stereo. Compared to genuine surround from a movie it would be a letdown.
This sounds like your Sony player is not reading the disc.
I have bought faulty DVD discs before that have given this same fault!
- I assume you have tried a disc that you know works in another DVD player?
Remember, your Sony Blu-Ray should be able to play ALL REGIONS of standard format DVD discs, so you should get sound & images from any one you choose.
No it won't be like surround sound, but you'll have the next best thing: a nice, powerful, natural Hi-Fi sound. I have a 46 inch 1080p Sony connected to a Sony Blu-Ray and Bose Cinemate Speakers. No complicated rear speakers wiring, no awkward center speaker to hide. The only drawback is that Bose doesn't have (yet) a code to operate the Blu-ray player with the Cinemate remote control.
