using non-hdmi home theater system with blue ray


I have a nice McIntosh multi-channel receiver and amp setup, but it is not HDMI ready. Can I simply use it for the audio portion of my home theater and run the HDMI directly from the blue ray player to my tv? Picture from blue ray; sound from McIntosh. Any problems with that configuration?

thanks in advance,

For what its worth there is little point to buy 1080 at sizes under 58in while its still at a somewhat premium but this is tail end of that era.

It is very noticeable on my 50" and 52" sets also.
Many need public to buy into it for sales. Lets say at 4ft it is true, how many watch true 1080p material and then sit 4ft away? Answer is pretty ckear.
My Pro isn't HDMI ready and I have a OPPO /w multi-channel, too. My HDMI video is connected directly to a 60 inch screen from the OPPO. All audio sources are connected directly to my pro. My pro has a delay dial on the front panel if voices and video don't quite synch-up together. This has worked perfect in my system, too.

A side note - I demo'd the new 60 inch Sharp Elite Pro TV last week. Very noticably, it has the best picture I've ever seen. It has a proprietory refresh rate program that betters 240. The clarity and depth was stunning.
