Mini to Toslink adapter for Airport Express...

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to improve on the output of the Apple Airport Express by adding a DAC. In another post it was mentioned that I could use a mini to toslink adapter for this purpose while still being able to stream wireless from my Macbook Pro. Can anyone recommend a good adapter for this purpose? I've looked at a few online that appeared fairly cheap.

Thanks for your suggestions.

For $100, you can get a VanDenHul Optocoupler toslink cable with a mini-plug on one end and a normal optical plug on the other. That way you don't need an adapter. And the cable is supposed to be one of the best regardless of price.

I ordered mine from Divergent technology (or audio) in Ontario, Canada. They distribute VDH products.

I'm quite happy with it. Read this:
