the satellite receiver has AC-3 toslink output but my Yamaha 992 only has toslink in for the DVD player and a COAX input for the tv/dbs input. I need to convert optical to coax......Does anyone know of a toslink to coax converter that's available that will handle the AC-3?

a few more in my search yesterday.Fostex COP-1/96 $99
Midiman CO2 $79and yesterday I bought an Audio Authority Model 977R Optical Receiver for $69 and it came with a 12" Toslink cable. I supplied the coax with RCA's and we were off to the races. I watched a PPV with AC-3 and it worked just like downtown! This is cool!
Here is the link for Audio Authority: http://209.248.228.2/index.html
They also make a 977T for Coax to Optical and these things all daisy chain their 9V power together with little patch cables, so just one wall wart.I'm posting this information in case someone else in the future needs to know what their options are, info that took me a day to sort out.
see the link below for a review of the Fostex and Midiman.
Cheers
