What provides better sound quality- an optical cable to the TV then the system or directly to the system?

If you're connecting out of the device to the TV's optical in, then from the TV's optical out to the receiver, you're wasting an optical cable. Just connect directly to the receiver. There shouldn't be any sound quality difference either way since it's a digital connection, but it's much cleaner with only one cable.


How do you connect a LG LHB335 home theater system to a cable box's digital audio out?

The LG LHB335 only has an optical digital inputs. If your cable box has an optical digital output, connect it to the Digital in #1 (TV) with an optical cable. If your cable box only has a coaxial (RCA) digital output and you want to use the digital audio connection, you will need to purchase a coaxial to optical digital converter.
