Sound help.

Now i know this might possibly belong in a different section (sound) but im more likely to get a quicker more helpful response if i post it here (although feel free to move it mods if required)

I have at home a set of logitech Z-5500 speakers which i use on my TV (optical) /Media Centre (Direct 6 channel) PS3 (HDMI to TV then optical to speakers) xbox 360 (same as PS3)

Now i am wondering if there is any type of optical splitter that i can use so i can connect the PS3 direct the the surround sound to avoid having to go through the TV and avoid the hassle of swapping cables all the time? (as i think the quality is degraded because of the preamp in the TV)

any help or guidance on the best set up would be much appreciated.

Yeah i want to be able to plug multiple optical devices into the one set of speakers. A toslink switch eh? Ill have a nosy around to see what i can find. Are they all much of a muchness or will some be terrible quality wise? or effect sound quality at all? As i don't want to be taking a step back. If that makes sense?
