I was considering using a Samsung Audio Bar for alternate audio output, but
the darn TV didn't have any Audio out jacks - only video/audio inputs. I
hadn't considered the AppleTV's output jack, I will be watching this thread
for ideas too.

Subject: A question for Apple TV Users: What hardware are you using
foraudio-out?
Hi Folks -- I've setup a current generation Apple TV and connected it via
HDMI to my television. The speakers built into the television are pretty
bad, so I've started thinking about using the Apple TV's optical digital
audio-out port, AKA toslink or S/PDIF to connect to an external audio
system for better sound. Unfortunately, my ancient home audio system does
not have the requisite toslink port, just RCA jacks. From the research
I've done I know it is possible to purchase a toslink / RCA converter but
before I do that I'd be interested in hearing from Apple TV owners who are
using the toslink audio-out port, with either the digital connection or
the RCA converter. If you are happy with the results you are getting and
don't mind sharing, I'd also be interested in knowing the make and model
of audio equipment you are using with your Apple TV and the level of
accessibility of that equipment.
Experienced opinions only, please. I've done my preliminary research and
am just looking to hear some real-world feedback.
Cheers & TIA,
Bryan
