AV Receiver Reviews; The Onkyo TX-SR508
The Onkyo TX-SR508 Receiver is a portion of this company’s movement into the 3DTV market, and it looks like a respectable start. At $350, this home theater receiver offers most of the on-board attributes and every last drop of the power a person can routinely receive from an Onkyo machine, and luckily the element of 3DTV compatibility did not send the purchase price into orbit, nor did it make it necessary to scale back other technologies which have presently become expected. Oddly enough, Onkyo in fact produces receivers for about the same price which essentially offer not as many options and a great deal less power, and so the TX-SR508 is a fantastic buy, even by Onkyo standards.
This receiver comes with four HDMI 1.4 connections which are capable of transferring the 3D signal between a cable box and a 3D television. Obviously, there’s more to this item than 3D compatibility. If, as an illustration, you want to play something on your Playstation 3 utilizing the theater speakers, and won't always require the 3D capability, this gizmo comes with an HDMI pass-through setting in which the receiver stays in standby mode and merely works as a large, complicated extension cord.
Onkyo’s mid-range 3D receiver shows up out of the box with Dolby ProLogic IIz decoding functionality and it is Sirius Radio ready. The universal port is prepared to accept the optional PSP dock which you will need to buy separately. Audyssey’s sound optimization technology is also built in, and it will be able to both adjust and maintain your sound levels so that you don’t need to. The time thus saved during the installation could easily be applied to gaming, and participants will be excited to see that Onkyo's receiver offers four gaming modes that are configured to emphasize distinct skill sets for Rock, Sports, Action or Role Playing games.
The Onkyo TX-SR508 Receiver powers 7.1 channels having 80 watts in every channel, and that is robust enough for a regular home theater setup. If you would rather have nine channels or as many as 100 watts in every channel, Onkyo sells that machine also, but at well above this price range.
Inside that price range, by the way, Pioneer’s 2010 AV receivers offer some advantages regarding features including built-in iPod support. However, the rivalry in the AV receiver product market is becoming more excessive than in the past, with models in the $300 to $600 cost bracket loaded with features that may have only been presented in receivers costing $800 or more as little as a few years ago.
If you are exclusively in the market for a 3DTV compatible AV receiver, the Onkyo TX-SR508 Receiver can be a very reasonable purchase for about $350.

You need to provide model numbers to get an accurate answer to your question! Lets start with the TV and Lg system.
edit:
Your HTIB does not have enough inputs. The model you indicated is a htib with DVD to start with. You have the option of audio only inputs one digital optical and one analog 2 channel.
Your best recourse to salvage the system is to get a optical selector and run the audio thru the HTIB optical input and run the video to the TV.
Or if you want the HTIB to act as the control point you will need to seriously upgrade the system.
Is Unity a true all-in-one home theater system? (Albuquerque Journal)
Do you like the appearance of this home theater system?
(Credit: In2Technologies)
At first glance, the Unity Home Theater is a T-shaped speaker system that
looks like a Jenga tower of home theater equipment.
The setup aims to give consumers a Swiss Army Knife of entertainment with the
inclusion of a 5.1 surround sound bar, subwoofer, Blu-ray/DVD player, HDMI
pass-through, surge protector, and TV stand (up to 60 inches) in a single
package. A power cord to Unity and a HDMI connection to the HDTV would be the
only wires you would need to get started.
A home theater system without a jungle of cords that uses only one remote is
enticing, but is Unity the end-all accessory for someone buying a first HDTV?
I recently had a chance to speak with the co-founders of the company behind
the product, In2Technologies.
Todd Beauchamp, a former head of audio labs for Apple, has extensive
acoustical engineer experience. Mike Fidler, a major marketing player with
Sony and Pioneer, met Todd through mutual friends. The two told me how their
first brainstorming session turned into a torrential downpour of inspiration
that created Unity.
Their goal was to create a fusion product ...
