Right, my amp only has one TOSLINK in and i now have 3 things i want to have connected, X-Box, PS2 and of course DVD player. Now i want something like a scart switcher but for digital optical cables, so does anyone have any recomendations for a product? Or does anyone have this one, and can tell me if its any good.

Pretty sure that`s the one we got about 6 months ago. We generally just leave it set on the DVD Player and change it when we want to use it for the XBOX. Not had any problems with it.

I had an optical link splitter which just divided one optical connection into two. Bought it very cheap fron Sainsburys Homebase, but I don`t know if they still have them. My feeling was that it degraded the optical signal, such that I would gate failed recordings onto a CD Recorder. A switcher sounds a better bet thatn a splitter.
