SPDIF into RCA

LedZep · 8th October 2005, 04:40 PM

I have a Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro and I am trying to figure out a way to send the signal to my stereo receiver along with my 5.1 surround speakers for the computer. I have Opitcal in/out, SPDIF in/out, Digital out, MIDI in/out. The problem is I am using a Panasonic bookshelf system and it only has RCA inputs. Does anyone know of a way to convert any of these into a RCA out? Id hate to have to buy a new stereo because my current doesnt have the correct inputs. Is there some sort of box that changes these outs or something? Please tell me I dont have to buy a new stereo to do this.

that looks like it is mainly for sending signal into your computer speakers. I am wanting to send the signal out of the computer into my stereo. As you can see here there are no outs on this except for the computer speakers.

I need to find a way to take SPDIF or one of the other connections and convert that to RCA.

Wait reread your first post... not sure your first post makes sense now...

Are you saying you want to output into your stereo as well as your surround speakers?

This unit has
INPUTS: coax, toslink, rca
OUTPUTS: rca

Yes I am wanting to use my surround sound and my stereo receiver. I have plenty of outputs. I have my normal surround outputs then I have Digital Out, SPDIF, Opitcal etc on my soundcard also. I just dont have these inputs on my stereo so I need something to be the bridge between them.

As you can see I have plenty of in/outs I just do not have RCA out (I do have RCA in though)
