Possible HDMI player with Surround Sound from standard player???

Hi,

Merry xmas. I already own a panasonic DVD player with surround sound. All speakers plug directly into the subwoofer, as does the AC mains which powers the whole system. One single lead then cmes from the woofer into the player which powers the player and connects surround sound..

Is it possible to buy a new HDMI upscaler dvd player and plug my existing surround sound speakers into it? Rather than have to buy an HDMI upscaler with completely new surround sound system??

Any help most appreciated, would love to have HDMI set up for Xmas!

Thanks

 

I would imagine that this would all work as long as your speaker setup has support for HDMI.

 

Do note that many who post here have been less than thrilled with upscaling players through HDMI. Do some research before you make the plunge.
