Lisa, how are you doing audio in that room with the new tv?

The audio runs through a receiver with in wall speakers.

i run a 4x4 monoprice matrix (serial) with HDMI runs 50-75ft. cost me maybe $500 with cables. far from the best solution but i got distributed video accomplished. steady and stable for 5 years. 1080p....

Thank you very much. I will research that time see if it might for me. Thanks, again.

just buy a standard component to HDMI converter.  You may need to use the AV Path setter driver if the driver for your TV doesn't show component bindings.

Easy peasy

Thank you for your response. My guy is quoting me about $12k to upgrade system so a $100 converter is an “easy peasy” option to try. Please share if you recommend one. Thanks, again.

How many inputs (sources) and outputs (TV's) do you have? Is your existing component baluns ran over CAT5?

Hi. Thank you for responding. I have an 8x8 matrix with 5 sources right now. When I upgraded a TV I just searched for one that also had components. Obvi, that is no longer an option so I am stuck. Baluns ARE run over Cat5. 

Understood. Do you have any idea of the cost for the upgrade.. ball park? Thank you. 

Hi there experts. I am absolutely a newbie at this and need your help. I just bought a new TV forgetting that I have component baluns on every TV in my house and a component matrix. What are my options to integrate an HDMI only TV into my system. My installer told me I “might be able to find a converter on Amazon” and I am hoping there are better options. I have a great TV and want to be able to see the quality. Any idea? Thank you in advance. Lisa
