Re: optical to coaxial switch

Vint, what exactly are you looking to solve with this apparatus? What is the connectivity you are looking for?

Cheers

My dvdp/HT has only co-axial input, need to connect my X360 to this (which has only optical output). I'm looking for a multiport switch so that , in future if i buy something like a PS3 , i won't need to buy another converter.

Is there anything else that can do this job ?

BTW, one amaetur q: Is SPDIF and co-axial same or different ? I saw this on ebay. Will this solve my problem ?

Re: optical to coaxial switch

If its Philips then they have only coaxial. Is it a DVDP/Amp combo in your HT or a separate DVDP. If DVDP is separate then you might as well pick up another DVDP that would come with optical/HDMI options. This might work out cheaper too.

Re: optical to coaxial switch

Sorry I forgot to check on that. U anyone coming from US? I bought it in US for 10$

Why dont u order directly from Amazon?
Amazon.com: Digital Fiber Optical (Toslink) to Digital Coaxial (S/PDIF) Converter: Electronics

I read in our forum that cables etc are delivered without any problems...

Re: optical to coaxial switch

^^ thanks madbullram. Amazon says it doesn't ship tools/hardware etc outside of US. Anyway, I will check if there's anyone coming back from US.

Will I get this in Singapore ? I've some relatives there. I don't know where to search for if this is available in Singapore !
