Home Stereo What kind of cord do I use to connect the SPDIF output from my TV to my home stereo?
I just bought a new television for Christmas, and the only audio output is SPDIF, which I have no idea what is. My internet research has been fruitless. What kind of cord would I need to connect it between the SPDIF output on the television and my home stereo?
There are 2 standard connectors for SPDIF:
Is it a little square plug or square hole? You need a Toslink Optical cable.
Is it a RCA female jack? You need a video cable.
Both are available at Radio Shack or BestBuy.
BUT: You said "home stereo": If it really is only a 2 speaker stereo system these connections will NOT work. You need an AV Receiver that knows how to decode Dolby Digital and support 5 speakers and a dedicated subwoofer.
Count your speaker outputs on your 'stereo' before you try to hook things up.
