toslink / digital optical switches two sources into one input

[admin_exported]

Given that the dacmagic has only two spdif inputs and a computer will use one, then there is a CD player, a TV and a games console. Does such a thing as a digital optical audio switch exist that people would recommend. Hunting on google shows some rough and ready versions and some which do video too, but I'll just be sending two channel audio around.

Knowing that a decent toslink audio switch existed would be good.

thanks (reposting this from the ever lengthening dacmagic thread)

Maplin sell such a thing for something like £30. Made by Banbridge I think. I know no more about it than that.

Thanks, that looks a lot more reliable than the one on amazon for a few quid.ÿ

When I went down to get one of these, it hadn't appeared in their catalogue and they had none in stock. They couldn't order it because they lacked the right code.
Take a note of it's code before you go down to Maplin is my advice.
