Digital audio--TOSlink to Coax/RCA?
Well, this one is kind of a stretch, but I figure it's worth a shot anyway.
I have an Altec Lansing 5-piece speaker system that has an input for digital coaxial audio. I also have a Power Mac G5 with a digital-out port. Problem is that the Mac's output is an optical TOSlink port and not the RCA plug that the speaker system accepts. Logic dictates that going from fibre to copper wire is, well, impossible. In case I'm wrong, though, does anyone know if there's some kind of adapter/converter I can use to get 5.1 channel (or 4.1 or whatever a 5-piece system does) from my Mac? Would be nice when I'm working with Reason or playing Doom 3. Thanks a tonne. Most amazing jew boots It is not my custom to go where I am not invited. |

If "very high end" equipment is a ~$100 speaker system, then I suppose I am.
Somehow, though, I get the impression I'm missing a few zeroes on that figure. Thanks a ton, I'll look into the converter boxes. How ya doing, buddy? It is not my custom to go where I am not invited. |
