Sony smart FHD tv connect to microlab 5.1 speaker by optical audio out

[kifayat27]

Will this setup work? I'll mostly watch movies through pen drive. Also help me with knowing whether I'll get true 5.1 sound or just stereo sound through optical out. Speaker model is Microlab M-1910 and tv is W700c.

It should work assuming there is no conversion of the signal being made. If you are using optical digital cable and the source file has 5.1 capabilities, I don't see why not.
