    Im looking for a bit of advice. I have a Sony amp and it only has 1 Optical input which is currently used by the XBOX 360.

    Does the Sky HD box have a digital coaxial output that I could connect to the amp??

    If so would the sound quality be as good as through the optical cable??

    Thanks in advance!!

    you would have to use stereo.

    Good news!!!

    I just went and had a proper look at the back of the amp. It has 2 x Optical Inputs.....and....2 x HDMI Inputs and 1 HDMI Output to monitor so thats that sorted!!

    Its a while since I had a look back there and was confusing it with the DVD player I have!!! What a numpty!!

    Anyway, of the multiple choices I now have as per the above inputs/outputs what would be best??

    And thanks!!
