i think most local shops got sell. can support upto DD5.1 and DTS.

Optical you can get HD audio la, Z-5500 is 24bits

Correct me if I'm wrong, as I may be out of date. As far as I recall, the xbox 360 doesn't have an optical audio outlet, right? U can only use optical audio if u buy that stupidly priced Monster component cable which then branches out an optical audio toslink. Anyway, that's what I remember back then, which is why i stupidly bought that stupid monster cable thingy.

Depends on what your definition of optical and toslink is.....

To my knowledge, optical is the method of delivery, while toslink are the connectors, hence, they use optical toslink on the 360.

I route it through a switcher and the toslink works fine, without any fancy shamncy monster cables.

ya i see picture i see optical cable i worry about cable size can't connect Z-5500 and XBOX 360
i looking Optical Cable HD Audio high quality stroong bass and loud

hm...cant give u pic but just plug the cable into the hole at the back of ur speaker n the hole at the 360 vga cable there...should fit right in...

optical cable which Brand i looking high quality i dont want cheap coz very bad quality

Monster Cable stuff are overpriced. For most applications a standard non-big-brand optical cable would do fine.

bhaskar, for your application any optical cable (ie toslink) would be fine.

eh question, since it's digital, trasmit bits by bits , cheap really means "bad quality"? an expensive Monster cable
will sound any different ?

edit: ..ahah ok saw MK post only after i post this ...

LoL that's why..... it's digital.

just drop by any electrical shops like SenQ, harvey norman or shops at Jln Pasar, or even hypermarket, you'll find one easily

no point go for those super expensive branded one, especially monster brand, which are overpriced items, and full of bull crap.

Just drop by jalan pasar buy a cheap cheap no brand one, and it will work just fine. I'm using one bought from Jln Pasar 3, 4 years back, and has been using it since then until now, no problem at all, I can get full digital audios like DTS and DD, and no distortion.

trust me, you won't feel a different in a RM100 optical cable and a RM20 optical cable.

Expensive doesnt mean better. There is a guide on how to check the quality of the optical cable. I cant pin u the web coz on mobile now. Try to google it. Or u can go those reputable audio shop n see if they willing to tell u. I got mine around 1.5meter for around rm100 n no brand but quality stuff.

Agreed. Monster stuff are a waste of $. The only reason I bought it was because there was no toslink output on my first-generation 360 (I THINK!!), so had to use this method to get optical audio.

So my real question was, is there a toslink output at the back of the older-generation 360 units?
