TOSlink splitting

["BUTLER, Tony, FM" <tony.butler@xxxxxxx>]

Keene electronics do a toslinnk splitter for a fiver.  Does anyone
have any
experience of these or similar.

I am concerned that the signal quailty may be somewhat reduced by using
one
of these.

What's this got to do with HA?

Well, I want to use the optical out on my Audiotron to get the best
possible
signal.
My AV amp accepts optical, my multiroom amp does not.
I need to feed the optical out to both the AV amp and to a DAC to feed
the
multiroom system.
I thought the cambridge audio DAC would do the job as it seemed to have
both
analogue and optical digital outs on it, but having checked with Richer
sounds, it does not.
So I need either a splitter and this DAC or another DAC (that is still
available Ken!) which will give me optical out, or 2 x analouge outs for
not
a lot of money.

I know DACs sometimes appear on ebay, but there's nothing suitable at the
mo
& it could be months before something does turn up, so I will go with
the CA
DAC if someone can confirm that an optical splitter will not adversely
affect the signal.


cheers,


Tony
