audio adapter cables Can anyone describe what audio adapter cable I need to connect my 42S1 to my marantz SR7200 surround receiver?Any help would be greatly appreciated.A non-geek

Are there audio cables that are optical one one end and coaxial on the other (my receiver prefers coaxial)? or is that an oxymoron?

Thank you very much for your assistance. It is much appreciated. All is working well now.

It has a digital audio out (optical). You need to get an optical cord and connect it to your receiver. http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp;_id=10229Need a toslink to toslink cable

This is easy. The Marantz, and I have to assume all modern receivers with the capacity to do surround sound, is quite flexible in handling different numbers and arrangements of speakers. You get to set up the channels in the set up menu of the receiver. Or, if you use the Audissey automatic speaker set up routine, the Marantz receiver recognizes what speaker outputs are connected and automatically sets the output accordingly. Either way it is quite simple.

i have a somewhat similar setup to yours. initially i thought my audigy zs sound card had optical out, but after some research, it was just a plain ol' 3.5 digital output and a adapter like this one was necessary. it works. plugs coax to the z5500. good for sending out a separate dolby digital/dts stream to the speakers for decoding.

Could you use the AV Cables that are in the back to hook it up to a portable sound dock? I just purchased one of these off ebay and was either going to get a Red/White Audio spitter to a 3.5mm Coaxial that way I can run it through my portable Bose Sound Dock to enhance the sound (http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Unlimited-Stereo-3-5mm-AUD-1200-25/dp/B0016LTZFI/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1306514406&sr=1-11) or if that audio channel is dedicated to the Svideo Input, You could buy a Digital to analog converter (http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Audio-Analog-Converter/dp/B0013LWK3A/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1306514478&sr=1-1) and then use a Toslink cable from the MM72 to the Converter and then the RCA cables to whatever you choose. lol Sorry its what I am going to do.

I cannot say for sure, but I use a Bose Acoustimass with our Marantz. I just don't know about versions. Ours is at least 20 years old so I just can't verify it is the same architecture as the series you referenced.

i believe there are adapters that you can use to use the composite connections on the back (fixed audio out). Just head over to your local Radio Shack and you should be set. It may not be a clean solution and you may require a couple of adapters but i'm pretty sure there is a solution to your problem. Plus, these no brand cables from radio shack come in pretty cheap and of good quality in my experience so it shouldn't set you back more than 30 dollars.

Dude, it works well but you should give the speaker a better receiver:Marantz SR5008 7.2-Channel 1080P and 4K Ultra HD Pass Through, Networking Home Theater Receiver with AirPlay (Discontinued by Manufacturer)Whats your front speaker?

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.

Ya man, Use adapters if you can't find a patch cable that goes from 3mm to 1/4". The trick is to make sure both are in stereo or mono. I run my laptop into a multi band equalizer/pre amp and then to mixer or amp.

Hi Peter, I work for a home cinema company and have these on a Marantz 8801. They are the most under rated speaker on the market, they can be a little bass heavy (it is controlled bass mind you) this is easily adjusted anyway in a nutshell Amazing speakers and massively under priced :)

I have my tv hooked up to a receiver which has 6 speakers ( surround). The brand is called Marantz. They are excellent, for more options on receivers, speakers etc., check out crutchfield.com

I bought this y-cable 2 x RCA Male / 1 x 3.5mm Stereo Female, Y-Cable, 6 inch and this adapter Digital Audio To Analog Audio Converter, which comes with toslink cable. The problem solved but the price tag is not good for such option.

If your getting 2 speakers and willing to come out of your standard 1/8" audio output of your computer you could get stereo XLR to 1/8" adapter and/or even just only use one connector. Hosa CYX-403M Stereo Breakout Cable, 3.5 mm TRS to Dual XLR3M - 3 m / 9.8 ft.Other wise your putting out money for thisNady UIC-81XX USB Interface Cables - Two XLR In/OutYour choice

I agree with the response about connections. This product did not fit my SoundDock. I solved the problem by purchasing the correct power supply directly from Bose.
