How to connect headphones to HDTV without a headphone jack?

blu ray player xbox 360 image

My main question would be would an RCA adapter work even while using a blu-ray player or xbox 360 connected through an HDMI cable? Also there is a analog jack in the back tht i can plug my headphones into but it is way to loud and the volume can not be lowered. So what are my options? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Actually it is a digital audio output

Answer
You could try a headphone sound control.

Or you could try using the audio out to plug in your headphones if your tv has one.

What receiver should I purchase under 300 dollars?

I need a new receiver that can support a HD TV, Blu-Ray player, and an Xbox 360. I currently have 2x Sharp cp-9860(bk) and 2x EPI 100v speakers. Both use stereo wire to connect to the receiver. The TV has an audio out as well. What receiver would be the best value for the money?

Answer
You will want a HDMI receiver that handles audio. In addition, with the Blu-ray player you probably want a receiver that can handle/decode high definition sound like TrueHD and DTS-HD MA found on Blu-ray movies. Here's some models under $300 that will work great for you with this in mind.

Pioneer 5.1-Channel A/V Receiver VSX-819H-K ($249.99 at Newegg)
Sony 7.1-Channel Home Theater A/V Receiver STR-DH800 ($279.99 at Newegg)
Onkyo 5.1-Channel Black Home Theater Receiver TX-SR507 ($299.99 at Newegg.com)

Links below for above examples.

My personal preference would be the Pioneer VSX-819H-K. It would work great.
