If you do have analog L/R RCA audio outputs then the converter above won't work since is only converts coax digital to optical digital. You would need a converter like this one http://www.amazon.com/SANOXY%C2%AE-Analog-Digital-Converter-Adapter/dp/B005F20756/ref=pd_sim_23_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0HT2H5S2J8KHB40MQ7FW Upvote 0 Downvote
