i spoke to a person at best buy store>>>they told me even if you connect the cable you would only get stereo>>>you need a digital cable to get 5.1 surround i hope this helps

Hello,I am not sure as to wether or not that particular connection will work, the size of the male end of the cable is the same as any standard A/V cable (red & white) so if that size fits in your audio out its a cheap option to try out. It was intended to deliver audio and I'm sure it will be able to meet your power requirements. Mine is running from a blu ray to an older 5.1 surround system with excellent results. Hope that helps a little, sorry I didn't have a better answer.

I have never tried that combo as I used the cable for outputs rather than inputs however it stands to reason it just might work if you trace it back the othe way... I suspect it might be a mono connection though...

I can confirm for you. What is it exactly that you want to do? On my earlier mini-disc units I used the optical cable to copy from my portable mini-disc unit to my component style mini-disc unit. The optical digital cable has a connector like a 1/8" phone plug. It uses the same jack on the mini-disc unit as does the earphone. Ask me your question and I'll check the owner's manual of my MZ-M200, or better yet see if you can download the manual and check it yourself so you can read all the details.

look at the picture carefully. The key is the 7+6 13-pin part. I had to purchase a different cable because this one did not work for me (and would have cost more to return than just purchasing the correct one.)Try to find a technical specification for your optical drive and they should list the interface type. if the pin pattern/interface type is what is required, then, yes, any external device can be run beautifully by these cables.

I not sure I know what an optical audio cable is, so I don't know if I can answer your question or not.

I have no idea what sort of connection that is. This cable has two male 3.5mm headphone connections. For an AV setup, I doubt that's what you need.

I'm can't answer that. I installed this because my older 5.1 surround sound system has only analog inputs - one for each speaker. Placing this between the dvd player (coaxial out) and the older 5.1 system did give me surround sound. However, it appears it is no longer working. Straight from China and built to last only so long.

because the 2nd connector is for "POWER ONLY" this cable is meant for devices that need extra power like portable DVD burners, so by not doing your research like you should have in the 1st place, you just wasted your money on the WRONG CABLE!! Appletards make me want to vomit.

Yes you.can. i have the same situation i used a 3.5mm male to.male audio cable.

It worked for me using the optical TV source converting it into simple RCA analog left & right cables. -- Wish I could give your mine, having sold my all but this :-)

If you are talking about a home CD player with RCA type outputs, you could but would need and RCA to 3.5mm adapter.

Yes this is what exactly what I use it for. Digital optical audio out on ps3 to coxial audio in on my receiver !

I haven't tried that cable on those models. You might want to check some of the Amateur Radio sites such as QRZ.com. It's always a good source of info.

It sounds like you need a straight M to F 3.5mm adapter. This is a male 3.5 mm to RCA cables. So unless one part of hardware requires RCA inputs then no this isn't what you need. I hope this helps.

In theory, it should. However, only via HDMI as the optical interface would not allow more than 5.1 compressed audio

No but there is a solution.The audio output is via stereo jack or the hdmi. What I did to have 5.1surround through a n optical cable was to connect the hdmi audio/video out to an hdmi / sprig (optical) splitter. You get as an output the hdmi signal + optical audio. I am using the viewHD splitter and it works perfectly

Yes, or a cable that converts to 2.0. Obviously then you will lose the 3.0 capabilities
