10m Toslink = Specialist?

Logsi · 18 Jul 2006 at 14:37

Is a 10m toslink cable considered specialist or are they quite common? Would i be able to get one from my local dixons or currys?

Thanks Very much in advance!

You wont find a 10m TOSLink cable on the highstreet I dont think. You can get them mail order though.

I bought one from the web. I would buy one from there too, it'll be cheaper anyway.

I went into town anyway, i went to a couple of music and hi fi specialists and asked if they stock 10m toslink's, as soon as i say toslink they are lost instantly, whats the point in working in a Hi-Fi store if you dont know what a toslink is, stupid people.

website still seems to me down, I don't know whats happened to them, I bought a 4m one and a TOS->miniTOS convertor for about 12 quid deilvered from them not too long back.
Hificables only seem to sell silly expensive ones
