You do not need to buy a new system, what you need is a DAC converter, that converts the Optical signal over to standard analogue RCA. You would simply run the Optical cable from the Bell HD box to the "Input" of the converter, and then run a set of RCA cables from the "Output" of the converter to the RCA Input jacks on your Sony Home Theater System.
