[QUOTE="Rickman, post: 1749828, member: 389813"] It's going in a Yamaha receiver which accepts HDMI & Optical. I just called the Apple store looking to see if they sold a Thunderbolt to optical cable, and he said they don't. But [B]he said an optical cable will plug into the macs headphone jack and you will see it light up[/B]. Cant wait to get home to see if that is true. Yes I heard the headphone out was digital, but had no idea it is also optical. [I]Anyone ever heard this???[/I] I didn't want to go the HDMI way, as I have the mini port and would need the adapter. I have the airport, and now you got me rethinking using it again. Txs again for letting me bend your ears guys. [/QUOTE]
