Optical out to Creative Inspire 5.1 (5200 Series Speakers)

[EvilSoul]

Hello All.

I have a Panasonic TV but it has NO RCA outs JUST an optical out.
Can I connect my Creative Inspire Speakers to it? So far all the DACs I have seen convert to RCA and only left and right. No center / subwoofer. The back of my Woofer only has 3 plugins Green / Yellow and Black .... I assume Front / Rear (Center and Sub)

Thanks in Advance
David

A regular DAC is going to be 2 channel output. You would need a surround sound processor to convert the digital out to multichannel analog outputs. No cheap way to do this. Either buy a home theater in a box or a system like this
