One of these converters -- http://www.amazon.com/Panlong-Optical-Toslink-Coaxial-Converter/dp/B00ANIIY9I/ref=sr_1_8?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1454185967&sr=1-8 will convert the optical out to 2 channel analog. You can then hook to an older stereo.

Can't I use the red and white av audio cables?

The red/white RCA ports on the back of the TV are input. The only output is the optical, at least according to the pictures I can find.

I don't know if it is the cheapest, it is an example of what you need. It has a decoder because unless you can restrict your TV to two channel output on the optical port, a the digital signal output won't be processed correctly.
