A remote volume control is helpful. I use my AV one a lot.

When it come's to the TV and Blu-ray player I use it a lot, Not into AV but I did once think of connecting my amp up to the TV but that was another thing I didn't get round to doing, one of the reasons was, my speakers are set up to optimise my musical pleasure and as my room is small it would have been difficult to get a balance between the both.

I must admit I don't get up to change the Proprius volume much, more setting a session listening level.

My TVs have all been connected up to the stereo - I've done it for decades.
Initially using RCA phono cables (long ones), and now over Toslink into an external DAC, and into the stereo rig.

Nowadays, with flat screen TVs, it really helps improve the intelligibility and sound, because the built in speakers don't have a cabinet as such to make things better.

My stereo amp has a remote control, so the sound is level adjusted when necessary.
Movies, football, Youtube, iPlayer (and others) all get regularly played over the stereo rig, and all sound much better for it.

What was this bit about optimising your musical pleasure?
What's that all about?
Great speakers are great speakers, and should be able to handle everything thrown at it irrespective of being music or not.

My TV can only go in one place and that's in the corner next to the window, so to get a good stereo image would be a problem plus my speakers need space, as up agaist the wall the bass become's over powering. One speaker in the corner and the other next to a wall is not going to be good for sound quality plus I'd have one speaker closer to me than the other, As it is I have to move them every time I want to listen to my HiFi.
