An optical cable would go into the DAC and then a RCA to 3.5mm (aux) adapter cable would go to the Bose from the DAC. Amazon right now has an Amazonbasics DAC for like $12 (even comes with an optical cable) and a RCA to 3.5mm adapter cable for around 8 or 9 bucks. So maybe about $25 total. More than $5, but it probably is the quickest-cheapest fix/optimal audio quality solution (if Im understanding the situation correctly, that is). Hope this helps! (Looks like someone already recommended the external DAC solution. Hope it works out, good luck!) This is what @Questionmarktarius thought to, but just to clarify - is a RCA->3.5 adapter cable even necessary? The DACs I've looked at have a 3.5 headphone port on the output end, so i just figured i could use a standard 3.5 cable from the DAC to the speaker's aux port. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV <cite>pinky0926 posted [p:947363776] in Who's good...
