Alienware Digital Audio

Hi, I have an Mx18R2 and have Recently purchased a new headset.

The laptop has a SPDIF digital output via a 3.5mm Jack, but my headset only has an optical cable for the Digital Audio.

will a 3.5mm to Optical Converter plug give me proper digital signal, or am i going to need an external sound card with an Optical Output?

Regards, Steven.

    doctor_death316,

    That adapter was never tested by Dell. Hopefully another user who has tried it can chime in.
