The receiver does not pass audio through using HDMI. You must use another cable for audio, such as optical. Overall... GREAT product for the money. Clear sound and was perfect for my living room setup. The iPod dock is a huge plus for me.

Considering the price on this system, it sounds pretty good. My only complaint, which is something that can be remedied by upgrading to the 6100, is that the HDMI is video pass through only. If you intend on using this as a switcher, get the 6100. With this system, the HDMI cords need a digital audio cords run to the receiver as well. Also, this system still does not solve the quiet audio for dialogue in movies and TV. That means you are still constantly adjusting volume when its quiet and then turning down when there is action. For music, it sounds great! The subwoofer provides an ample amount of bass for a small to mid sized room. The clarity of the music is nice too. Obviously this system is for someone who does not want to spend much, like me, or has a smaller room. However, this system is a much better solution than other systems that have the integrated DVD players such as Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, etc. Avoid those systems at all costs if you value good sound!
