Good battery powered Toslink optical DAC needed

Anyone know of one? I have checked the Ack-Industries and Scott Nixon Battery operated D/A converters but I have been unable to find one that has a Toslink input for digital signal. Is there any made? Thanks for the interest.

There is no switch between coaxial and optical, so you have to be careful to have just one input active.

I have a Gamma unit hanging around right now, unused. What did it take to get it into your car system -- hard, easy? How vast an improvement has it made? Thanks -- Tom
