I would like a Amp 5.1 to have for my TV and connect it to my


Sky+
DVD player
PC.

Can you get any with 3 optical inputs?
I dont really want a manual switch.

You can get spliters/combinging things.

My Yamaha DSP-AX640SE has 3 optical + 1 co-ax at the rear, plus a further optical at the front.
Enough for my Sky+, DAB, Freeview, DVD player and Mini-Disc but no space for my DVD recorder!

If you don't find an amp with three optical inputs, you could always get an optical - coax converter:

Depends how much you want to spend If you're sitting down and your chequebook is feeling healthy then have a look at http://www.meridian-audio.com/

IIRC my Sony amp has at least three if not four, so I'm sure you won't have probs finding one.
