Question Digital Audio on 36PW9607c

Can anybody who has this set tell me what connector/s are provided for linking to a digital audio (i.e. Dolby Digital 5.1) source?

I already have a spare toslink cable, so hopefully this will be okay.

If not, what sort of lead do I need to get? Any tips on the most cost-efficient?

Before anybody asks, I've not got the set yet (ordered and should arrive in the next couple of weeks from empire direct), and the downloaded manual from philips' website is rubbish.

The 9607 has only a single co-axial digital connection so your toslink cable will not work. Any fully shielded 75ohm single-phono>single-phono cable will be fine... they do not need to be designed specifically for digital audio, so a video cable will be fiine as long as it meets the spec above.

Hope this helps.

Cheers for that. Looks like a trip down the local hifi shop is in order.

The whole street is awaiting the tv's arrival - there are a number of film evenings planned!
