Digital Audio Output to Coaxial Input? - Blu-ray Forum

th3drap3ryfalls · 05-01-2009, 08:08 PM

Hey guys!

Sorry if this is a noob question but i am somewhat stumped... I bought a new Panasonic Plasma tv and so far it is awesome, but the only thing that i have a problem with is that there is only a Digital Audio output on the tv, and my receiver only has coaxial inputs. What can i do to overcome this problem? And please don't say buy a new receiver or something because i really enjoy this receiver and have had it for a good while.

Thanks!

If your receiver doesn't do HDMI and digital coax is the only input option, then its time to put it out to pasture and upgrade.

Sorry.

if your not in the market to upgrade your receiver (which is fine if your not) then you can buy an optical to digital coax from monoprice. they work fine and I have used them in the past. make sure you get the right one! this link should take you to the optical (tv) to digital coax (receiver) best of luck!
