A read/write system is disclosed for optical disc apparatus. The light source is removed from the head and optically coupled to the disc by a single-mode fiber which acts as a spatial filter. Adverse effects on the light source due to reflection from the disc are avoided by making the fiber length greater than one-half the coherence length of the source. A sparing switch and combiner component may be included in the system. An array of discrete light sources, each coupled to an associated fiber, may also be employed for multiple track accessing.
