Robert.. dude.  You don't need optical or SPDIF/coax to get rid of your XBox's 
crappy sound.  You just simply have a crappy little RatShack audio amp.  The 
thing's from the 80's for pete's sake.  It probably has dried out filter caps 
and can' reproduce the full 3watts of pounding audio that it's rated for.

Just go spend $20 on a new/cheap little audio amp or decent $60 set of PC 
speakers and you'll be fine man.
