I purchased a Carver HTR-885.1 Home Theater Receiver two years ago.  My Carver
receiver drives a 5.1 six speaker arrangement through its six 5.1 speaker
outputs.  The Owner's Manual states,

"The HTR-885.1 can be connected to any standard Dolby Digital (AC-3) or DTS
decorder.  It can also be connected to the audio output of a DVD player if it
has an internal decoder.

The 25 pin connector on the rear panel of the HTR-885.1 will accept the output
from any standard decoder.  If your decoder has six RCA outputs instead of a 25
pin connector, you will need to buy a special cable.  This has six RCA plugs at
one end and a 25 pin connector at the other."

I plan to purchase a DVD-Video/DVD-Audio player soon and wish to start
listening to 5.1 music and 5.1 movie tracks through my 5.1 system.  All
DVD-Video/DVD-Audio players that I have seen have only the six RCA plugs for
their audio output signals (in addition to the L-R stereophonic outputs).  I
have searched high and low for the "special cable" that the Carver Owner's
Manual suggests that I purchase, unsuccessfully.  Do you have any suggestions
where I can find one?  I don't want to be held up for lack of a single cable.

Thank you for your help.
