Convert Sony blu-ray player Coaxial to RCA


It seems all the new Sony Blu-Ray players have a coaxial digital output for audio and I need a RCA output so I can connect the Sony player to my Ayre AX-7e amplifier. It seems that all of the newer blu-ray players have coaxial cable output for the audio (and not RCA). In my case, I am using HDMI to get the video to my TV and want to take the audio directly into my Ayre AX-7e amplifier.

I found the Fosmon Digital Optical Coax to Analog RCA Audio Converter Adapter. This device coverts coaxial to RCA. See (you might need to copy and paste this into Safari, etc):

Will this work? Does anyone have another solution?

I am taking the audio from my cable box into the Ayre amplifier (RCA to RAC) and want to do the same wit the blu-ray player.

I would get something else. The absence of analog outputs suggests that Sony was too cheap to put a dac in the unit. Theres plenty of other options.
