5.1 Speakers to TV

[SilentStorm7]

Hey guys..Maybe is this thread already open but anyway
I bought Logitech x-530 5.1 speakers and I want to hook them with Samsung TV..TV manual says that 5.1 Surround sound will only work with optical cable.
So I want to know if there is any adapter or thing that will convert my 3x3.5mm audio jacks which comes from speakers to optical, so I can connect to TV.
Picture of speaker outputs : http/

Tnx a lot

Return the speakers. This type of setup is not made to work with a TV like that.

The 5.1 system needs to have an optical cable input, which this setup does not. Your TV may have red and white RCA stereo outputs but thats not worth it, you will not get actual surround sound out of that.

EDIT looking at the model the TV has a headphone out which you can connect to, however it will only be 2 channel stereo like I mentioned. You need to return this setup and buy a proper 5.1 system with an optical connection.

Something like this:

A PS3/PS4 and a lot of cable boxes include an optical out but the TV does not.

Adapters are not really possible without some expensive electronics to encode the multiple audio outputs into an optical output.

Yes those types of adaptors do work. I personally wouldn't use one as you lose any semblance of tuning control vs returning the setup and buying one for nearly the same price that has the correct connections.
