Its all down to budget and what you really want to achieve ! is it a flatscreen tv in the front room ? are the others fltscreens ? Have you ever heard of AV lynx systems and cat5e distribution ! it costs a few quid buts its well worth the effort if within the budget you set ?

It really is very difficult to advise exactly what to put where carmine with out actualy seeing and knowing what combination of INs and OUTs your system comprises of ?

Sorry to be vague

in basic terms your looking for optical audio out on ya TV to go to optical input in on the Surround amp(if they have those in/outs)
OR
Audio out of the Tv to AUX in of the surround amp

Both of the above will result in whatever picture is being shown on the tv audio should be coming from the amp provided its set to Aux/optical in ect as per connection you use !
