Wii-U HDMI AND Muti-Out/Stereo lead?

No I meant exactly that. I think we are all saying the same thing, just some crossed wires Haha.

If you've got component leads from a Wii that's another option? I ended up upgrading my whole amp/speaker setup for the WiiU since my old setup needed optical in. The biggest kick in the bollocks is that even after upgrading, original Wii games won't play in 5.1 on the WiiU because of the Dolby issue. Grr.

Slightly off topic, so you could hook up to an amp by just plugging in the red/white of your component cable (red/white) into an amp and keeping the hdmi in?

Unfortunately not, it was one or the other - component or HDMI. If you use HDMI out for video then that was your only option for audio too.

As Fuse states, nah not poss and this is the whole issue, still, saved me buying a wii-u and finding out when I got home.

Fortunately I can route HDMI/DisplayPort audio out of the monitor via 3.5mm cable into my amplifier sitting below relatively easily.
