Hey, I recently bought the echo dot thinking my old Sony 5.1 Theatre system (HT-AS5) would have a 3.5mm jack to support it. Naturally it doesn't, now before I go out and buy a new speaker system I was just wondering if there is any way to hook up the echo dot with the sony system.

I've attached the manual showing what ports the subwoofer has on its back (page 9).

Ideally I don't want to go buy a new speaker and quite like the audio from the HT AS5. Any help or advice will be appreciated!!
 
Solution
I believe all you need is THIS adapter.
You connect the 3.5mm stereo plug into the audio out of the Echo Dot, and the two male RCA connectors to the Audio In on the Sony.
