Need to hook up Z506 surround sound speakers to PS4 Slim.

[Jarsnofski]

Hello, I need some help setting up my 5.1 surround sound system to my PS4 Slim so I can watch movies with surround sound. It's really been bugging me out lately because my PS4 doesn't have an optical output and I found that was the solution to the original model of PS4 but not the slim. Anyway I can configure them for my PS4?

You'll need something like this.

Is there anything else I need to set this up? Just HDMI cables and RCA cables?

Those speakers don't have optical in anyways, so why does a optical port matter. what were you going to do with a port vs not having one? You won't get true if any surround out of it. What happens if you plug like a phone into it. do all speakers go when it's just a stereo 2.0 source?

Just the two front speakers work on the phone.

Then that's all that would work from the ps4
