New member Username: EjbreverPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-06 | The back of my TV only has a single digital coaxial cable and I would like to hook it up to my receiver which has only RCA inputs. Is there anyway to convert a digital coaxial cable to two RCA's? |

New member Username: MusasabiPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-06 | What about DAC converters? Digital music files converted to analog sig to the speakers. I too would like to know if anyone has seen this because my buddy bought a TV where the only output is digital rca coax. No d-rca coax on the reciever and thus the problem, just like Eric. I feel your pain bro. If there is such a device I would expect it to be relatively expensive. Please help us! Thanks |

The difference in audio quality between analog and digital is worth the money. You can't get 5.1 or DTS without a digital connection. |
