• Digital is Digital (HDMI transmits digitally). That being said HDMI will transmit as good of a signal as the optical input. But to answer your question Yes you can have both.

• Hi constie, It is not necessary because you will select the correct input. HDMI and Digital Optical are two different INPUTS. Even if you will use two connections, only one will be active. Thanks, >Joffrey
