I have been conversing with Kenton82 on this subject, but now for some reason cannot reply to his last post. Does anyone know why? How do I reach him now? I have answers for him.

Looks like the thread was closed because you kept responding to the thread without adding any new additional information, but just quoting the other responder's comments; essentially bumping the thread which we do not allow here on Tom's Hardware/Guide.

it will depend on what kind of connections the box has. if this is a cable box then not all programming will have surround sound. also make sure the box is capable of surround sound

Power 12V DC The make of this box is Arris. Does this help at all? Thanks so much

I forgot to ask if you need the receiver information. We bought a Sony home theatre system. TV, BD, Receiver and surround sound speakers. We watch videos and get surround sound. With the new tv box,we can see a movie, but there is no sound. We have tried so many different hook ups and nothing works.
