Hi all, after removing my caiman and installing my bushmaster,the beresford optical will no longer work hooked up to my sky box ,but works perfectly hooked up to my blu ray,Iv installed a thatcable optical cable to the sky box with no problems,any ideas ?

That's a weird one. Try cleaning the ends of the optical cable just in case some finger grease has been deposited on the ends and the SKY box not giving a high enough output signal to overcome that.

Evening stan,it is odd,I'll try and clean the ends tomorrow,Ive been summoned to the pub tonight!! I did get some sound but it was like a bad radio reception,all crackly,as I say perfect with blu ray player.right best go and get drunk I suppose........

Try swapping out the cable for the one you are using on the Blu Ray player James and then you'll know for sure whether it's the cable or not ;)

The beresford cable now lives,happily between the bushmaster and xbox360 and the thatcable one is proving to be pretty good with it's new sky duties
