How do you know when to use ANALOG vs DIGITAL?


I'm struggling to understand what type of interconnect I would use between my pre-amp and my amp? Is it an analog signal?

I'm assuming that I would use a digital going from my source (DVD/CD) to my pre-amp?

Just a little confused? Thank you for the help.

Seans thorough answer to a somewhat simple question is just one more reason I for one am so glad he is back posting on the Gon . He takes the time to educate many of us in areas many highly educated members would not give the time of day to . Not because THEY are lazy but because Sean is so generous. I personally have sung his praise so often now that I guess some may think he and I are neighbors when the fact is I know him through these forums only . I just keep running into his posts everywhere in areas I am trying to gain knowlege. ONCE AGAIN , thanks Sean for giving.
