I have a Sony BluRay going into a digital to analog convertor and I have a ground hum. The hum originates from the coaxial out. Sony's don't have toslink and I think I can solve the problem by changing to optical.

. I looked at a couple of LG models but the specs only say HDMI out. Anyone know who still has optical out? Discrete on/off would be great as well.......TIA

Denon or Marantz has Analog out = bypass the DAC altogether.

It belongs to the customer and I doubt he will want to pay those prices

He's got a ground problem and changing the grounding setup is no guarantee of improvement. Breaking the ground circuit is much more likely to help, so going optical is the best way.

This is a really unclear statement.
What belongs to the customer? The Sony with the problem? Those prices for what? For no DAC? For a converter? You're asking him to pay for a new Blu-ray player without, as far as I can tell, consulting the Jensen Transformer papers on ground / hum problems. That's the place to start.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

The hum will probably remain.
