    Surely having a splitter cable between two different devices can fuck up everything it's attached to?

    What if one of the sending nodes sends at a faster rate, or they're not matched voltage-wise, one will try going the wrong way and it'd be a garbled bullshit or only one would work?

    Just working this out from what little science I remember from when I think I used to do it xD
    Take that ya one-eyed, bomb-lobbin', cactus eatin', pot bellied, thug fat jigglin-chicken whoopin' big, back-stabbin lob-armed creepy spastic bloody, blind-eyed pashy little twitchy pickle-headed rocke- hoppin, potato-poppin' phony two-faced stealthy mutant bastard!

    Oh VH VH VH......

    You

    a. Clearly dont no what a TOSLINK cable is
    b. Clearly didnt note that its a digital signal
    c. Clearly arent aware of how sound travels through even normal cable.
    d. Clearly arent aware that light cant suddenly switch direction, even in a fibre optic cable - in a Y shaped splitter the light is never going to go from 1 of the "y bits" to the other.
    e. Clearly dont grasp that there are standards for technologies so everything works together - if 1 device sent out pulses faster than another, the reciever would either not work or need to be designed for multiple inputs, which would be more expensive.

    TOSLINK is firbre obtic cable. It is a digital optical output from a device to a digital optical input. Therefore no voltage of any kind can travel through it - its light.

    If it was analogue there would possibly be some problems with ground loop isolation, and possibly even if it was digital coaxial there is potential for ground loop interference there - but not with TOSLINK, as its light.

    Through a normal audio cable you can mix and match as many sources as you like and the sound will simply "combine". im not sure if different devices use different voltages, but it either doesnt come into the maths for working out sound output, or they're all uniform.

    Heres the wikipedia article on TOSLINK

    EDIT: Due to theese reasons - VH Noobscale + 99999999

    Yeah, this seems to be my bi-annual MEGANOOBFUCK event.

    UPDATE - linking two devices by optical through a splitter results in no output when theyre both emitting laser.
