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.

Source to preamp is also analog. Digital would be from a transport to a DAC. If you use a pair of cables (L+R channels) it's analog. Digital is carried by a single cable.
