    Default S/PDIF Optical (TOSLINK)

    I'm aware that TOSLINK optical cables are a high quality interconnect for connecting sources to amplifiers and such, I am however wondering, are the TOSLINK cables only capable of carrying a STEREO signal (Left and right channel) or can they carry a full Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround sound signal?

    Cheers, Gab

    TOSLINK optical cables can carry any type of audio.

    Given the OP has not participated in this (and other threads) he started... saying he only started them as he 'was bored'.
