High quality custom length Toslinks???

Does anyone know of a company that makes custom length glass Toslinks or even really good plastic Toslinks? While i have sources for reasonably priced "standard length" glass cables, i can't seem to find the source that makes these cables for all of the "repackagers" and / or someone that can cut to fit. As far as plastic Toslink's go, i thought highly of the DH Lab's unit that i had previously tried, but they only offer very specific lenghts.

I'm revamping my Dad's system and am trying to keep cable clutter to a minimum while retaining good sound. Since i'm footing the bill for this, i don't want to go bankrupt doing it : )

For those that are curious, these Toslinks will be used to feed signal from his digital sources ( DVD & Laser disc players ) into the surround processor. Any ideas? Any and all help appreciated. Sean

I don't know how your can get custom length toslink unless you plan on buying large quanity?

As far as standard length 1m, 2m, 3m glass toslink with 280 glass fiber strands and superior spring loaded coupler at amazing low price go to "sonicwave" link below.......1 m for $25!

I have tested this glass toslink with other brand name toslinks and it comes out on top.

Opps.........just noticed 1m & 2m cable is a little too popular now, seems to be currently backordered till 3/27/04, guess the word has got out on these.

Check "search" here on audiiogon and look for "glass" I bought a 5ft glass for $36 and it is working out great. Because it is a private enterprise, he might be able to vary the length.

Sean, if you contact Lou @ LAT International, he can probably make up custom lengths for you.
