Hi all, I want to connect my Macbook with the Amplifier which has 5.1 channel and DTS. If the Digital Optical Out is used as a link between them, can I get the 5.1/DTS sound? Thanks in millions.

Yes, the optical out is a digital signal. It's then up to the amplifier to decode the signal into 5.1 surround.
