Actually I haven't tried it. What's a movie without a 5.1 track ? (unless it's an old classic).

Should work though; Coax (and probably optical) supports 2-channel 24/96 uncompressed PCM provided your player and receiver are up to snuff (10 years ago that was usually not the case). E.g. I've used Coax to play back DADs which are 24/96 PCM stereo audio disks. You just can't pass 5.1 PCM over optical. Re: insufficient bandwidth.

I've fooled around with 2 channel TrueHD from the player's analog outputs and it sounds really clean, but I miss my surround sound. Hmmmm.... maybe I'll try the optical just for grins.
