Analog or digital interconnects for cd player?


I would like a few opinions about whether one or the other sounds better? This is for cd redbook only. I hope I am answering this question correctly as I am a relative novice. Thanks.

If you are connecting your CD player to a pre-amp, integrated amplifier or receiver, you need to use a pair of analog interconnects.

If you CD player has a digital out and you want to use an external DAC (digital to analog converter) or you want to use the DAC built into a receiver, you would use a single coax or optical DIGITAL cable.

In order to get an accurate answer, we would need to know what type of other associated equipment you will be using.

Enjoy,
