    I'm Sorry Jesse, but Optical cables for audio are far superior to copper. I can hear the diffrence between copper and optical. All of my digital sources are connected with fiber for the audio.

    Lasareath, how do you find a difference with fibre optic vs digital coax. A digital signal cannot be manipulated within the transmission from source to gain stage (unless there is EMI/RF issues). Simply put, an uncorrupted digital signal will not sound different whether it is distributed via coax or f/o. It's all in your head man.

    H/K AVR430 Receiver
    Samsung DVDHD841 Dvd player
    Yamaha CDC506 5 Disc changer
    Jamo E855 Tower speakers
    Wharfdale Pacific P-10 Bookshelf speakers
    Acoustic Research Master Series Interconnects
