CAble from digital out on audigy to stereo

Colbaker · 12 Jul 2006 at 14:46

Guys, I have a soundblaster Audigy 2 soundcard with digital jack out but need a cable that lets me plug it into my stereo which has an RCA type digital input.

Any ideas what sort of cable i need?

Thanks

Stereo 3.5mm > 2x RCA at a guess.

Nope it's only 1 RCA type connector which says digital in.

Thanks for the reply though.

Sounds like a digital coaxial connection to me.

Therefore you need 3.5mm stereo to digital coaxial cable.

That sounds like what i need, Like gold dust though, CAnnot find one anywhere.

You need a 3.5mm MONO jack to PHONO - quite rare

then you need a single phono coaxial cable.

Yeah, so you just use the white plug and leave the red one unused.
