I connected vga to my tv from xbox as my onkyo sr605 doesnt have vga on it. So now i need that audio cable that connected to my xbox and goes to my onkyo reciever. What is that piece called?

Its not the red and white cables as i cant use them as there not long enough!

Optical. You really didn't know you could get surround sound from your Xbox?

Of course it will work.

Try contacting Monoprice to see if they can't get you a replacement cable. They have lifetime warantees.

Do they come with a power plug?

This is Monoprice's answer:

This light comes with a 4 pin molex power connector. It relies on power from an internal PC power supply. It will only work in devices that can provide power through a molex connector.
