[QUOTE="gargoyle, post: 801070, member: 560156"] If you're planning on running a digital cable between your receiver and your cd player, you should be using a digital coaxial cable as your primary choice and the optical only if you don't have that available to you. Optical cables produce something referred to as jitter, hence a reason that companies produce jitter reduction boxes, digital coaxial cables don't have this problem and have a stable signal up to 50feet. A digital coax. jack should look like an ordinary rca jack, except for the fact that it will be orange or black in color (and should say coax.) Keep in mind though, unless you have extemely expensive interconnects ($200+) then the optical cable is still going to be superior to the standard analog. [/QUOTE]
