It won't work for him, his HT doesn't support ARC.
@deemah786 bro, unfortunately your model doesn't support any kind of 5.1 input. It's primary purpose is DVD playing and producing 5.1 sound from within. It won't double up as an amplifier. If your purpose is getting 5.1 audio from TV or STB, this model won't do it. Maximum it can do is accept 2.1 channel audio from TV or STB and probably do a lame upscaling. You can use it to get better bass and sound, but not as a proper surround sound solution!
