What, if any, optical cable do I need to connect my Superuniti to my TiVo box ?

Thanks in advance,

A standard toslink cable will do fine.

If you have anything else connected to the tv, like a blue ray / DVD player, Xbox etc. or if your tv is a smart tv with apps for Netflix / Amazon etc... then it makes sense to connect the superuniti to the tv and not to the TiVo.

Just be sure that the TV digital out is set for 2 channel PCM rather than multichannel bitstream - the DAC in the Superuniti is 2 channel only and not multichannel compatible. It may be set like this by default but otherwise it should be changeable via the menus.
