Modern A/V receivers with HDMI I/O generally have an adjustable
delay for addressing this issue.

My HDTV's only output of any kind other than the picture is digital
coax (stereo, not multichannel), which does indeed have the proper
amount of delay for use with a standard DAC.

If I wanted multichannel, then I'd have to use one of the outputs
of the cable box. I've tested some of them and they all cause lip
synch problems unless additional delay is applied.

An AV amplifier would have an adjustable delay feature to bring the
sound into time-alignment with the picture. If the OP wants
multi-channel sound then this is his best option, if he only wants 2
channel stereo then using the digital audio output from the TV will
do the job for a lot less dosh.

Having looked at the rear of my TV i find no audio outputs at all, only
inputs, but there is an optical output, i am informed that this can
indeed be sent to a suitable Amp and the sound exited to speakers, just
to find a suitable amp now.
