Digital or Coax?

I presently have an older sony dvd player (that I plan to sell soon) and have a nad dvd player that I mostly play dvd's (zoom option comes quite handy) and cd's (to go with my nad receiver).

So, I need to upgrade my present cables because the ones that I'm using now on my old sony amp and mostly audio/video cables. I also have a 32" sony wega (that I should upgrade soon for a 42" LCD) and I'm using component cables for one of the dvd player & s-video for the other.

I need help.

Thanks ;-)

Are we talking audio or video?

I think it depends also on the kind of DVD players and TVs. For mid-grade products, either one will work well. For hi-grade products, optical or toslink will work better. I have the component cables hook-up and like the video quality a lot, definitely superior than coaxial and s-video.

Cpatbay, don't you mean TOSLink and not just plain optical? When I think optical I still think AT&T glass. Even if AT&T glass isn't widely used anymore.

I assume you mean OPTICAL or COAX, right? If you are not too picky, either would work just as well. Otherwise, it's a long and winding road ahead ... By the way, why do you need two DVD players for your home theater?
