New TV audio problems

[vmax]

My new TV has an optical audio only
I want to used my old trusty reciever still that takes RCA cables
Will this adapter work?

So if it does , do I just set it near the TV and it picks up the audio stream??

Damn smart TV..

That should work but pricey. Here's a cheaper option. And don't forget the TOS cable.

It looks to me like you just plug the TOSlink cable into one side (audio in) and the RCA cables into the other side (audio out). Then plug the RCA cables to your trusty old receiver.

Got the new 70 inch class on black friday.

I actually needed this to hook to my 30 year old Aiwa. Nice.

Problem solved. I looked a new receiver. I wanted one that had Bluetooth as well as play whatever I was feeding into the TV.
Turned out that I could get a surround sound bar and do all of that and get rid a metric ton of wires at the same time.
Went to worstbuy and got a nice Sony surround sound set up for a really good deal. Now it plays whatever is coming into the TV plus any Bluetooth source I want.
