This guy sells the Optilink-5 (the tos link made from quartz glass) for cheap. Check it out here. I bought one from him recently and had Audio Quest verify that it was legit.

Nice looking, but seems a bit expensive to me.

Do people still use optical that much?

I actually use one on my satellite because I had issues with the HDMI.

The MSRP on the Optilink 5 is $450.00 for 1 meter. I use it for the PS3, and my Rotel RSX 1065 doesn't have HDMI inputs.
