I want surround sound How do I hook up my lcd flat tv (digital audio output) to a vintage Kenwood receiver?
           Digital audio output is a single orange cable


Kenwood receiver (aux) inputs are the analog red/white.



(yes, i've already tried every possible combination of red/white to red/white on the tv, but it doesn't recognize it)

Your vintage receiver has surround sound?  Doesn't look it from the outputs.

Just go analog out to analog in.  Red & White.

Yep, need a different receiver for for surround sound.

Just use a .99¢ Store RCA cable and enjoy it.  It will sound good, just not surround.  You won't gain anything converting the digital out.

Whatever sound.... I just want whatever I'm playing on my tv to be heard through Kenwood and model 6 cabs.

   I tried straight analog rca red/white on receiver to red/white on the lcd input and still nothing? Tried looking in the menu for stereo settings and still only tv speakers work.
      There's too many damn colored inputs on that tv panel (blue, green, red, white, yellow, orange!)

Analogue output on TV to Analogue Input on receiver (Aux).

All the colored rca inputs on the lcd tv are for video alone. They are marked video 1, video 2, video 3.
    looks like I need the converter after all

Works as expected B&H Photo-Video-Audio - Techno 1 - Feb 21, 2011 I purchased the GTV-DD-2-AA to be able to plug my new LED TV to my old surround sound receiver with no ptical input. The product works as advertised except for when watching streaming video over the internet (sound pops and cuts out for a few seconds). Contacted Geffen and they said it was the tv loosing audio signal for a moment. I can live with it for the short amount of time compared to the price of the component they said would fix it for an added $75

I have that exact converter. It quit on me after a couple months. I'm sure your TV must have an analog out somewhere. otherwise you could always use a Y-cable and use the headphone out.

What is your service provider? Cable, Satellite, or something else?  I thought most all of them have a box now (with audio outs).

   I don't watch tv; I don't have cable. I only need it for xbox and dvd's.
