fiber optic/toslink cable recommendation


hi all, i really dont know anything about these types of cables. i have quite high end power cables, interconnects and speaker wires, but i am running my movies from an external hard drive into my cal audio cl-2500 processor with a cheap monoprice fiber optic/toslink cable.

i see some glass/quarts fiber optic/toslink cables but i dont know what to get. i know that i cant always just go buy the price of a cable.

any recommendations for a cable?

thanks

Thanks again for this advice as I've just spent two hours with my new Unique Products 12" glass toslink. At the very least, it's made very well, connections are solid and it was inexpensive. Sounds way better than what I was using, but I'm not trying to make outlandish claims.
Length is not as important a criteria as number and severity of bends in the glass cable. If you have 3 or 4 90 degree turns that have to be sharp because of tight space requirements, that will be a more limiting factor. Try to limit this.
can anyone tell me if i should keep this cable as short as possible. i was thinking of getting a 3 or 6 footer.

does length degrade the quality of sound with this type of cable?

thanks

Here is exactly what you are looking for: http://www.uniqueproductsonline.com/6ftgltodiauc.html

This cable has bested cables up to $300+
The one that Elizabeth is thinking of (and I use) is perhaps this:

They have different sizes from 3-35ft. High quality, 280 strands of glass, very inexpensive.
Lifatec glass fiber cables are also recommended on this site regularly. The one I bought has a flexible stainless steel jacket foot protection, and I'm quite happy with it.
Here's two sites with varying priced toslink cables. Hope this helps.

If you're interested in a glass cable and can't track down the ones Elizabeth mentions these SonicWave cables are well made and pretty reasonably priced.
