Yep millions of them and we've talked about them frequently here
<smile>, what you're looking for is a DAC and you'll find them a plenty
everywhere from Amazon to your specialist Hi-Fi shop.
I recently bought one for around $30 on eBay, its no where as good as my
Rotel DAC I use in my Hi-Fi System in the den but it will do.

By asking this question, some listers may think that I have spent the
past several years under a rock.
I am wondering whether there is such a thing as an optical to analog
converter. My new Samsung smart tv has what I am certain is an
optical audio out plug. And, since my stereo system is truly
antiquated and has no optical connector, I need a means of patching
the tv into the stereo system. If there is such a converter, I would
appreciate brand recommendations along with approximate cost in U.S.
currency if possible.
Thanks.
