FreeviewHD surround sound equipment list upated

Another small update to my list of Freeview HD equipment that can provide surround sound, to add the Humax HDR-Fox T2 to the list of equipment.

For those who are new to this site, essentially for technical reasons, if you connect your Freeview HD box to your surround sound system, you may not actually get anything more than stereo, unless you buy one of the products that is included on my list.

For more details, and a glossary of some of the jargon involved, the best place to start reading is probably this post.

The Humax HD-FOX T2 has been updated so that it transcodes and outputs DD5.1 on both optical and HDMI.

  Thanks; I’ll make notes on the list page regarding that. And one day I’ll treat myself to an HDMI AV processor, too!
