Optical cable for Sky HD and PS3?

Answer 2

See if your sky hd is equipped with a coaxail digital connector

Answer 3

why dont you just connect your Sky HD via HDMI for the Audio, as long as its a HDMI 1.3 cable then you can carry the audio signal...

otherwise use co-axial and optical

just make sure you buy some decent Optical cables. check out Qunex cables.

Answer 4

get a optical splitter 2 in 1..this allows you to have 1 optical cable from your receiver then 2 coming out of the splitter to sky hd and ps3

cost about £6 from maplin or under £5 from ebay
