I will have one toslink and one spdif coax inputs. Have no idea at all how to switch inputs.... any suggestions ?
Is any of these good ? Would be good to have selector and inputs on one pcb..

Well the board as is has a SPDIF input, so all you need to make that work is to wire it to an RCA type panel mount. To get the TOSLINK you'll need a connector such as one the Toshiba TORX models, the output of the TOSLINK interface feeds into the existing SPDIF input on the board. So a selector of some sort will be needed between the TOSLINK output and the SPDIF input on the board unless you get fancy and get into signal sensing and such. Since the TOSLINK needs power to make it work it requires a few bits to support it.
Here's a sample of a schematic & layout as an example of what you could buy or build for the TOSLINK piece available from Twisted Pear Audio:
Twisted Pear Audio - TOSLINK OPTICAL INPUT MODULE KIT
FWIW - I have no affiliation with this vendor nor have I ordered from him.

TPA module is out of stock
This one should be fine ?
And I just add mechanical switch after the toslink ?
I could try to build it on perfoboard, never tried it before though 🙂

You could use a good quality mechanical switch like a 2 pole or a four pole for switching the input from your toslink and RCA connector to the DAC.
I've done this before with good results.

Even simpler, you could try this:

I have seen this. How switch is implemented then ? It is 2 in one and I add dpdt switch and dont need any extras and just simply plug it into dac ?
There is no switch, so either a relay or other switch would be needed. Either that or wire them in parallel and only feed either toslink or spdif at any one time.
I'm using this little guy with my V2.0. It works with the 5V power supply for the DAC, despite the spec that says it needs 6V to 20V. I've also used it with a 9V battery.

I don't understand why this link won't work. e-bay says the listing is removed, but I can find the listing if I search for TOSLINK in the "Home Audio" category. Try that. It will show up.

Sound quality equally good I assume ?
In theory it should not matter, remember pre-SPDIF input is all digital signals so as long as you do not drop any bits 😉 the signal path is rather immune to attenuation as compared to the analog side of things.
Also send PM. No luck yet.
I have made payment for :
3 X DAC
3 X DAC PCB
2 X PSU PCB
Thanks
GB Status and Payments Update
Hello All,
Been busy and finally spent couple days on catching up emails and payments. I have consolidated the members list with who have paid and not paid as of yesterday evening. The list is attached. Members who have signed up and are still interested in the GB get in touch with me via pm if you need invoice. Otherwise you can take the prices from the first page and calculate the prices and send me the payment.
I will keep the list open till this weekend for the members to pay. I will order the boards and DAC chips on Monday 08/05/2013.
If you find any issues with your payment or order quantity please get in touch with me ASAP so that I can fix it.
Cheers!

Need Paypal info
Subbu - I need to send you payment for this GB, but didn't receive an invoice via email (more importantly, don't have your Paypal info). Could you please let me know? Have already sent you PM w/same request.
thank you and Jean-Paul for the design & GB.
