완벽한 홈 시어터 케이블 가이드

## The Core Setup

A modern home theater has 4-6 HDMI connections:

1. **TV** (2-4 HDMI inputs, 1 ARC/eARC)
2. **Soundbar/AVR** (HDMI ARC/eARC to TV)
3. **Streaming device** (HDMI to TV or AVR)
4. **Game console** (HDMI 2.1 to TV)
5. **Blu-ray player** (HDMI to AVR)

## Cable Routing Strategy

**Option A: Direct to TV** (simple)
- Each source → TV HDMI input
- TV → Soundbar via HDMI ARC
- Pro: Simple. Con: TV must pass through audio

**Option B: Through AVR** (best quality)
- Each source → AVR HDMI input
- AVR → TV via single HDMI (eARC)
- Pro: Best audio routing. Con: More cables
