Spec me a PS3 and Sky HD to optical splitter ?

Apparently with some of these splitters the PS3 to amp audio quality is awful, can anybody recommend one that works well ? The Sky HD and PS3 will be on at seperate times.

I got one for my xbox & Sky+ box from TVcables.co.uk, sound quality is no different than a straight cable...

I got a £1.99 splitter, works perfectly and as the audio is digital there is no loss in quality.

Which one did you get ? the one at TV cables is the other way round, i.e 1 source to two amps. I want two sources to 1 amp.

it was one that you twisted

I cannot remember which it was but it let's you put two devices into one amp, iirc it was around 20 notes, writing this on a crackberry, so will have a look tomorrow for you!!

Optical splitters work both ways, just don't have both sources on at the same time or you get no sound at all, unless you have a manually switching one.

This is the one I got, and it works brilliantly!
