Hello.

Is it correct to assume that there can be a direct
translation
between coaxial digital and TOS Link optical? If so, what
is
the best choice for price, simplicity and performance?

I need TOS Link.

Coax to optical converters are cheap and widely available.
Even places like Radio Shack and Parts Express have them.

These came up first when I searched google for "coax optical
