I bought a home theater system that has an optical digital audio input and a coaxial digital audio input.

I have my PS3 hooked up to it through the optical input. My cable box or tv do not have a coaxial audio outport (only optical digital) so I have to keep switching the audio cables.

Is there a way I can have both my tv and PS3 connected to the home theater system at the same time so I dont have to keep swtiching cables?

Is there such a thing as an optical digital to coxial digital audio cable (kind of like dvi to hmdi)?

Thanks

There are two ways to do this.

One is a optical selector.

The other is a converter.

Good luck

If you get a 'Digital Audio Splitter' you will be able to connect two optical inputs to your home theater. If you are in US you can get this at Home Theater section of Bestbuy/CircuitCity
Check out the link to get an idea. Eventhough it is called a 'splitter' it is actually a 'concentrator' too (since it is optical)
