Sound Card w/ Coax cable?

[BigJimbo]

Okay my motherboard on this computer has it. But the machine which im going to be hooking up to the home theater system doesnt. Im looking for a good sound card that has the yellow coax jack (similar to RCA)

or is there anotherway i can hook up the sound card to a reciever for good sound?

where do i get it?

You can use a plain old composite (RCA) video cable, I'm using one right now to connect my Audigy2 ZS Platinum to my Z-680s. Look at Radio Shack or if you're desperate Best Buy or Circuit City.

I don't think you get more than stereo on coax. digital.

I get Dolby Digital 5.1 on my digital coax.
