OK, if you are referring to the Mcintosh MC861 DVD player, I would definitely recommend using a high quality digital coax. Its "optical" output is Toslink, and although you can get the ICs in glass fiber (as opposed to the standard plastic fiber) it's the transceivers (the thing they plug into on each end) that limit their performance. Also the Toslink cables themselves (glass or plastic) aren't good for much over ten feet if I remember correctly (AT&T can go for miles.) Anyway that's my 2 cents.
