Good item

My surround sound system only has 1 optical input so this is perfect for what I needed. I have my Sky+ box and PS3 plugged into this and it works perfectly. I have tested putting Dolby Digital and DTS through this and it transfers them perfectly, my surround system confirmed it was receiving DD or DTS from Sky+/ PS3.
I couldn't work out how to turn the selector to start with, you just have to push the end it on the switch so you can turn it :-)

works well

I bought this to connect my sky+ box and xbox 360 to my home cinema which only has 1 optical input. it works fine and is a cheap and easy solution.

I bought this product from West Sussex Trading and it works perfectly. Have a sony amp with only one optical in but the DVD and Sky HD both have opticals so when I want to watch a DVD I always had to swap leads which was awkward and a pain. Set this bad boy up yesterday and with the flick of a switch it flicks between them perfectly with no loss of sound clarity whatsoever.

One note - you need a spare optical lead to run from your amp etc into the switch as well as the ones running from your DVD etc into it.

At this price I heartily reccomend this product.

WORKS WELL FOR MY NEEDS (PS3 AND TV)

I wanted my new surround sound speakers (Z-5500) to work with my PS3 and my TV's optical out for watching what ever it is on my TV, without needing to keep switching TOS cables at the back of my unit. Works very well and does what it is meant to do, so pleased over here 101% :D

Does exactly what it is supposed too!

This is cracking piece of kit that works perfectly. I have PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 plugged into this. It is spot on and easy to switch between sources.
The only issue you may find is that when you change sources, you may need to turn you speaker system off and on to recognise the new input. But I think this is a speaker system issue really and not related to the switching device itself.

Would recommend this to anyone with multiple optical devices. It's cheap and has a quality feel to it. If it dies in 2 years time.... so what, buy a new one for a fiver!
