Optical output sound quality is definitely much better than the normal red white cable connection, it is crispier and carries less distortion.. of course it also depends on your sound system..

btw anyone knows if there's a optical input splitter? I want to connect both my xbox and ps2 with optical but my sound system only has one optical input..

Do u think this thing works both ways? E.g I have a 360 and a PS3 but only 1 optical INPUT. If yes, I'm definitely getting one.

Nobody looking at Yamaha RX-V1600 or RX-V2600?

Got very tons of inputs and 2 HDMI input. Good for ppl with PS3 and HDMI HD-DVD/DVD player.

After reading all the post I think I'm using dolby pro logic. Darn, now I'm itching to invest in another av receiver. Tot I can tahan with the current for another year or so.

I'm using This 3 Way Optical Switch bought from Ebay for less than RM 60 (include shipping). Works well for my XBOX 360, PS3 and DVD on my single optical input HTiB

Is there a different between Optical and Digital coaxial output in term of sound quality? I know you get more signal loss using coaxial than optical. But will we notice the quality different?

My philips HDMI DVD player has no optical output, only can use coaxial.

Guys, what about this one?

Dang!! can't link to Ebay. Just search for "component switcher" USD 79.99. I wonder how much is the shipping.

Best for those with just one component inputs (E.g Dell LCDs)
