Everything is in the title,

I am the happy owner of Logitech x530 stereo 5.1

I am looking for an HDMI box that can output audio from the HDMI in to the 3 jack cables of the Logitech x530 (center/rear/front) in order to have 5.1 stereo on my movies from my Amazon Fire TV or my Apple TV

Can you help me??

    Hello,

    A HDMI extractor like this one should work.

    Especially when it isn't there...

      Unfortunately not! Indeed, the Logitech x530 connects with 3.5mm jacks (1 for the center/subwoofer, 1 for the rear and 1 for the front).

      Here it's RCA and it won't suit my needs...

      These are indeed the reference connectors 4 from the image below that you want to connect

    Yes, but if I buy the two adapters you recommend, I won't have 5.1 stereo, I'll only have two channels....

    I would like to have 5.1

      Don't you have a less expensive alternative? 50€ is expensive?

      There are cheaper options, but quality?

      What are the references (Brand and model) of the TV on which the Amazon Fire TV or Apple TV is used?

      We could look for converters with optical or coaxial inputs to RCA 5.1 outputs to connect to the TV.

      The Thomson 28HA3203W television, if I can believe LCD Compare, offers a Coaxial digital output.

      So a converter of this type connected to the coaxial output of the television should do the trick... but that’s still €30.

      and the same one on Aliexpress on sale for €15.
