I have a Sony KV1311 TV which has a MPX output on it to hook up to a
stereo decoder. Can anyone point me to a cheap decoder to put between
my stereo and the tv?

RECOTON makes a cheap MTS decoder that will work very nicely with
your MPX jack. I have one that I use with it's "sniffer probe"
to pick up the spurious emmisions from the IF stage of a cheap
TV. Had got DBX and DOBLY built in as well as Synthesized stereo
for mono broadcasts. Costs about $99. It's amazing what kind of
frequency respeonse I can get from this baby.

I have a Recoton decoder as well and I am quite pleased with it.
However, I don't think it's cheap. There are several cheaper decoders
floating around. However, I have heard that the sound quality on these
is inferior to the Recoton decoder.
I know a person who bought such a cheap decoder and to his dismay,
found that it took 15 minutes for the unit to decide that a TV signal
was in MTS! Needless to say, he returned the decoder.
Also, the Recoton decoder has Dynamic Noise Reduction, not Dolby NR.
