I want to connect an external amp and speakers (with L & R RCA plugs)
to my iMac, which apparently takes:
S/PDIF stereo 3.5 mini-phono jack.

I think that in this context, "optical" means fiber optics, and so
does not apply to me.
I think I need a pigtail to convert 3.5 mm stereo mini-phono plug
(male) to stereo RCA jacks (female).
Right?
I would think it easy to find, but have not found one. Where?
