take the rca out from the shaw box, put a splitter on it and run it to the tvs
1.2 When I'm showing the game, the audio is only coming from the center speaker (surround sound option I guess), is there a way to have all the sound playing on all 5 speakers?
i would take analogue audio out of the receiver and plug that into a amplifier and plug the speakers into that

why would sound from all speakers on a 5.1 broadcast? it defeats the purpose of surround sound. with 5.1 the vocals come from the center and other sound ie music & sound effects come the other speakers.

2. I have an iphone with a 3.5mm jack into the receiver, it works great, but only plays as a 2.1
2.1 Is there a chance to have this work with the 5.1 speakers?
i would plug the iphone into a aux in on that analogue amplifier




Thanks.
