Sony DAV300

Does anybody own or have any details about this DVD/Dolby Digital Home entertainment System?

I thought it had a optical input as the player and amp are in one unit, however it only has external analogue inputs for other devices...

I have one of these players, and there is no optical imput. But why would you want one? As the DTS/DD decoders are built in, and the speakers connect direct to the unit there is surely no need to an optical imput. They have various scart sockets on the back for attaching video's etc. But there would be little point in attaching a video with an optical imput as their sound is crap anyway.

I have a sony Sky digital STB which has an optical ouput which although working, isn't sending DD at the moment, it would have been a good upgrade path???

Surely your sky digital STB will not send Dolby Digital? You will be able to get dolby prologic out of it but I though that was all any terestrial/sat system sends. If you connect the left and right outs from the STB to the video 1 sound inputs you will get Dolby surround. I have my tv connected to these inputs and get dolby no problem, from my IDTV.
