Surround sound system for PS4

Hi guys looking for a little help with setting up my surround sound system with the PS4. The system is 6 years old now so not sure if it's possible and don't want to buy a new one yet. I've included a photo showing the connections available.

Use the coaxial digital input.

Then again unless you get a optical to RCA (12€) on eBay, just go the RCA route.

Can I just clarify that I run the PS4 through the surround sound, so I use the digital in and then out to the TV from the HDMI and just change the sound settings than on the PS4...

You can not run the PS4 direct into that amp ...unless you buy a digital optical-coax convertor ,or run the PS4 to TV and then using the TV's rear coax out (if it has one) back to the amp or just use the L/R phono out from the TV back to the amp. You will not get full Dolby Digital sound using the TV first method.

I have my PS4 rigged through my Onkyo ,Dolby True HD sound amp and it is quite amazing. You could pick up a good amp on Adverts very cheap . Your amp looks quite ancient,get a new one for your swanky PS4 and it will love you for it

Here's a nice cheap fix with optical inputs " http://www.adverts.ie/home-audio/yamaha-rx-v495-av-receiver/4513229 "

Sweet for that cash ,and I would'nt be too worried about the " no remote " for that cash.
